  Added seven new tunes to the jukebox
Posted by: Walt's Daughter - 12-18-2013, 12:30 PM - Forum: Great Tunes from WWII - No Replies


Added seven new songs to the Jukebox, today. Hope you enjoy them.

 

 

Dear Marion,

 

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year..... After receiving your Christmas email, I got checking the "jukebox" looking to see if the songs I sent to you made it to the collection. I didn't see them. So I checked my "sent" email folder and much to my surprise that email was not there. I guess I goofed when sending the list to you. Let me try again.

 

There's A Star-Spangled Banner Waving Somewhere Jimmy Wakely DECCA-6059

Bell Bottom Trousers Kay Kyser And His Orchestra COLUMBIA-36801

A Slip Of The Lip Duke Ellington And His Famous Orchestra Feat. Ray Nance Victor-1528

I Wish That I Could Hide Inside This Letter Lawrence Welk And His Orchestra Decca-4428

G.I. Stomp COUNT BASIE & HIS ORCH V-DISC -034

The Squadron Song Captain Glenn Miller and the AAFTC Orchestra V-Disc-144-A God Bless.

Ed Alleger Volunteer National Military History Center Auburn, IN

 

Marion's Note: I got everything on your list, but the Star-Spangle song and I Wish song I have, are by a different artists.

Hello Marion,

 

Your site is always fabulous. I have a request. The Pathfinder Richardson, 508PIR, told that he had a Tommy Dorsey's song in mind when he bailed out of the plan, 6 june 44 morning. The title was: "What is this thing called love". I would like to hear it on your Jukebox, if you find it. Thank you in advance. Merry Christmas and Happy new year, a great 2014 year for you and yours.

 

Joel Baret

Marion's Note: Happy to comply. Greetings to Europe!

  Army Firefighting: A Historical Perspective
Posted by: Walt's Daughter - 12-16-2013, 09:20 AM - Forum: WWII Books & Magazines - No Replies


Hi Marion,

 

I wanted to pass along that I have finally gotten my book regarding Army firefighting from the Civil War to present day published. It is called Army Firefighting: A Historical Perspective and can be purchased from Authorhouse at http://bookstore.authorhouse.com/Products/SKU-000479870/ARMY-FIRE-FIGHTING.aspx or your local bookseller or preferred on-line retailer. An overview of the book, in addition to recently found history, can be found at my new website at http://www.armyfirefighting.com/

 

I also would like to request permission from you to add a link on my website for the VI Corps Combat Engineers of WWII website.

 

Thank you,

 

Allen Ward

Army Firefighting Historian
