WAS THE KING OF SWING SILENCED BY BULLET OF A US HITMAN?

King of Swing Glenn Miller was a bisexual whose music had hidden
subliminal messages used to brainwash German troops, a sensational new
investigation claims. And although the bandleader is officially listed as
dead, lost in an air crash over the Channel, fresh evidence suggests he was
murdered by US secret service hitmen in the red-light district of Paris.

The musician, whose body has never been found, may have been
assassinated because he had threatened to blow the whistle on a group of
gay officers involved in US undercover operations in various parts of
Europe from their base in Bedfordshire.

Martin W Bowman, who has written more than 60 books about military and
commercial aviation, reveals the theory in The Bedford Triangle, which
examines the role of the US Army Air Force, the American Office of
Strategic Services and Britain's Special Operations Executive in World War
II.

More than half a century on, little has been revealed about highly sensitive
and secret work conducted in country houses and from airfields in
Bedfordshire.

But Mr Bowman has gained a tantalising glimpse of the cloak and dagger
operations, drawing on dozens of first-hand eye witness accounts.

Miller, America's most famous musician, arrived at Milton Ernest Hall, near
Bedford, in July 1944, supposedly to boost morale.

General Dwight D Eisenhower, the Supreme Allied Commander, had
demanded his presence.

On December 15, Miller and two others went missing, presumed killed,
when their Norseman UC-64 crashed into the sea after taking off from RAF
Twinwoods for Paris.

"Many people believe that perhaps the true reason for his disappearance
has been covered up," says Mr Bowman who thinks that Miller's music
contained secret messages.

"Known as subliminal or 'message under the music' technique, it is a
method of putting a hidden message through to a person's subconscious
without the conscious mind being aware," he said.

Miller's music was transmitted to the German Army on Wehrmacht Hour to
help undermine morale - and this was where any covert messages would
have been heard.

People soon noticed that the once affable Major Miller - whose sexuality
had been questioned - was becoming tense and missing appointments.
According to the British bandleader Geraldo he showed signs of cracking
up.

"He said he had no doubts that the band would go back, but he would
never see America again. He told Geraldo this many, many times," says Mr
Bowman. "A lot of friends in the music business felt that, when it was said
that he had died in this aircraft, they didn't quite believe it."

Miller's name was added to the death log some days after the crash.

In the meantime, his personal belongings had been packed up and moved
away.

Retired US air force serviceman James E Norwood was one of those
'disappeared' by US intelligence services and given a new identity.

He says: "I know something about the crash that Glenn was alleged to have
died in. There was no crash. The entire incident was staged by the
intelligence services to cover something up."

Norwood said he and Miller were in a 'squabble' with some top brass who
infiltrated the officer corps.

Mr Bowman says: "It seems that they, meaning the members of the group,
were predisposed to homosexuality and were attempting to impose their
values on others, officers and enlisted men, through harassment,
intimidation, malassignment and the like.

"In retaliation, the bandleader may have threatened to 'spill the beans' and
'break the network' wide open.

"At this point the American high command would have to 'retire' Miller from
the scene and eliminate a potential breach of security without drawing
attention to any covert operations still in force.

"The corruption went right to the top. It still does, as the massive cover-
up continues to this day."

MR Bowman reveals that witnesses in Paris claim to have seen Miller
drinking in a bar in the Pigalle in Paris on the supposed night of his death.

Then a Parisian brothel-keeper claimed one of her customers, a captain in
the military police, said that Miller was having a drink when he was shot or
fatally hit on the back of the head.

The suggestions that Miller was interested in both sexes was backed by a
medium who, when handed a shirt belonging to the bandleader, said he
had 'tendencies with both sexes'. The slight bisexuality would never be
proved.
