Re: B-17 pilot whose crew was credited with the most aerial kills

Last year I saw the Elvis movie at the cinema. It displayed impressingly his pivotal role in making genuinely black music acceptable/irrestible for white listeners. I assume in the pre-Elvis era the whites were rather reserved towards black music, not mainly because of the black skin color but rather because of the inherent sensualism of the songs. It required the gigantic charisma of Elvis to bridge that gap. Is it known what B-17 crews listened to in their spare time ?
