Aige Old Radio: For Our Veterans



This week on Aige Old Radio, I will be honoring our veterans for Veterans Day. 




Read on for more information about Sunday's broadcast:



Music

All of the music heard in Sunday's broadcast will be songs recorded and/or released during World War II. I will definitely include some Command Performance recordings--in fact, the entire broadcast may consist entirely of Command Performance recordings. 

There will be minimal (probably none) interruption from me during this broadcast.


What is Command Performance?

Command Performance is a radio program which originally aired between 1942 and 1949. The program was broadcast on the Armed Forces Radio Network (AFRS) with a direct shortwave transmission to the troops overseas. It was not broadcast over domestic U.S. radio stations. [Wikipedia]

Tune in to Aige Old Radio on Sunday, November 10, 2013 at 7:30PM EST for this special broadcast.



If you know any veterans--especially any World War II veterans--I encourage you all to share this episode with them. 


Thank you so much for all your love and support--and most importantly, thank you, thank you, thank you to all of those who have served.


--Adrienne ("Aige")
