The Sharon Rogers Band

In the 1940s the Sharon Rogers Band, an all-girl band, toured the eastern half of the US. As USO Camp Show #687, they traveled to the Pacific at the end of the war. At General MacArthur's request, they toured Japan at the beginning of the Allied occupation. In January 1946, they survived a plane crash and were rescued by a Japanese fishing crew. Their story is filled with their love of music, youthful adventure and the patriotism that filled the hearts of their generation.
