Great stuff, Homer; please sign me up for the seminar.

I have a special intrest in and collect audio files from radio broadcasts of the 1930s through 1960s. I'll try to add links to revelant broadcasts to your posts.

I'd offer a couple of suggestions for your reading list: An Army at Dawn and The Day of Battle, two excellent narrative histories by Rick Atkinson. Each stands alone as a real page-turner, and together they comprise the first two parts of the Liberation Trilogy, the third volume of which is promised for 2011-2012.

Thanks for starting this project.

You are enrolled. Thanks for your interest.

I will be obtaining a copy of "An Army at Dawn" soon. Thanks for the suggestion. It sounds like a non-fiction parallel of a trio of novels by Jeff Shaara - "The Rising Tide," "The Steel Wave," and "No Less Than Victory." I read the first one about two years ago. It was good enough for me to want the sequels. It begins with Torch and ends with Sicily. According to the blurb at Amazon the second one begins shortly before Overlord.

I know there are many good broadcasts out there. CougarGA7 kindly provides links (when he is not bogged down with school work.) Maybe you guys can compare notes.
