Thanks Deport and Everyone!

As a thanks for your help, I have a link to the NBC Complete Day broadcast for June 6th 1944. It actually runs through June 7th. There is a corresponding CBS Complete Day Broadcast too!

Download it and give it a listen. It is amazing how they could put together a story with so very little information. Remember, the invasion was not announced by the allies, but by the Germans! Get both broadcasts, it is an invaluable lesson in real time history for the youngsters.

There is also a complete day broadcast for station WSJV 1939-09-21. It is the earliest known complete day broadcast. Fascinating.

As you all are probably aware, there is a plethora of information on Archive.org. Oh, and by the way, on you tube there is a fascinating BBC program. It is 8 episodes called Wartime Farm. Three historians and archaeologists actually re-create the conditions and activities of a British war time farm for the period of one year. You will be blown away at the knowledge we have lost.
