Tex Beneke (member of Glenn
Miller Orchestra) was a fellow ham radio operator.
Dad talked with Tex (K0HWY) and found he was to be at the Northampton
Fairgrounds on Labor Day weekend in 1967.
The photos were taken the day we met him; Dad was thrilled to talk
with him about Big Bands and his time with Glenn Miller.
The photos below and autograph above were from that day.
