Paris Leave



According to their families, Denis Harper and Claude Page saw the Glenn Miller Orchestra in Paris in December 1944. (This was, of course, shortly after Miller had gone missing, but the band went ahead with the concerts anyway.) I don't remember Dad ever mentioning this so perhaps he wasn't there, but we see him here at the Palais de Chaillot. That's him, just below the statue. Two places to his right is Frank Simpson (without hat). These are the only two I recognise.
