A couple of years ago, my father-in-law gave me a four-CD set of many of the V-disc recordings you refer to. It is a wonderful collection of music, comedy (including Bob Hope), complete with personal messages to the troops from the artists, such as Judy Garland, Fats Waller, Bing Crosby, and many others. One can only imagine how precious these records must have been to the lonely servicemen all over the world. Those interested in the period might want to check out my new novel, THE FUHRER VIRUS. It is a WWII spy/conspiracy/thriller for adult readers, and can be found at www.eloquentbooks.com/TheFuhrerVirus.html, www.amazon.com, www.barnesandnoble.com, and www.booksamillion.com. Thanks!
