Voices of WWII
« on: March 25, 2011, 06:07:11 PM »
Ran across this today. Its News Broadcasts and such from WWII. Some might even be suitable as very good replacements for the splash screen music

Listing to the broadcasts about Pear Harbor on Dec 7 41 is particularly interesting as you can really catch the flavor of what they were thinking and sense what they must have been feeling.

Gotta say as an observation. The reporters of that time seem much more professional in their profession then nowadays

I figure this thread will probably be moved to another forum.  I confess placing it here was intentional as its good enough to want it to reach the widest possible audience. And inasmuch as duplicating threads across several forums is not allowed...

I may be breaking the rules here but with the best intentions.

Apologies  to HTC in advance
Death is no easy answer
For those who wish to know
Ask those who have been before you
What fate the future holds
It ain't pretty
