Found In The Footnotes

We have two stories about Capt. Jack Tueller, who was a highly decorated US Army pilot who served in three wars. The first is a legend which goes hand in hand with Valentine's Day,which, by the way,is this Saturday (2026). The second is the true story that inspired the legend. In both, Capt Jack is at D-Day + 12 in Normandy, he is very good with his trumpet, and his trumpet gets results in both stories.
