Humphrey Lyttelton reveals the fascinating story of how, as US forces joined the fight against Hitler in 1943, a network of broadcasting stations was established to provide Americans with the kind of programmes they were used to hearing back home.
With contributions from author Patrick Morley, memories from British fans of the network and rare recordings of the American Forces wartime broadcasts.
