When Pidgen Becomes Jive

From Hattiesburg American May 10, 1943
The 166th Inf. band played for the dancing at the open house held at Service Club 5 on Sunday. Although some of the members had seen and spoken to men in the 442nd Combat Team before this event, many of the band members were surprised to hear the Combat Team men talk “jive.” They gave credit for this phenomena to be their ability as a “solid” dance band.
