Welcome to Breitbart News Daily. Thanks for being here. We have a three-hour radio show on Sirius XM Patriot every day, but we'll give you two

segments here for free. This is the beginning of the second hour where we got into a conversation

about what we've lost, how to get it back.

This week in 1940, when Glenn Miller released the number one song in America,

and it was the number one most popular song throughout the entire war.

And there's an argument that this might be one of the most important songs in our country,

at least in the last hundred years.

Glenn Miller wrote this song with the soldier in mind.

He was too old to be drafted,

but he said, I wanna use my musical gifts to try to serve the war effort.

And I came across an essay about this song,

because, again, it was 86 years ago.

My goodness, the song came out 86 years ago this week.

And this essay I read about it was about how morale was low with soldiers.

Maybe these young men, some kids, away from home, maybe the first time ever.

And you're overseas and you turn on the radio

and you stumble across the broadcast of the Army Air Force band led by Glenn Miller. And all the songs that you heard from

Glenn Miller, this one in particular, it was just synonymous with American culture and just

reminded you of home and made you realize what, why you're in this war at all and what you're fighting for and

Glenn Miller purposely made music just Americana just freedom and liberty embedded in what he did

and it was a morale booster for our guys.

Reminds you of your family back home.
