- From 1972-97 I was a radio announcer, mostly in the Northeast. I had the most fun with Armed Forces Radio first in Korea then in Panama. A lot of the time it was spontaneous or improvised and that made for a great learning laboratory. The network DJs, Charlie Tuna, Wolfman, Kris Erik Stevens, Jim Pewter, LaRita Shelby and the rest were so consistent, it was and amazing thing to hear. Then to Massachusetts and WEIM, WKNE, WKBK, WFGL, WMDK, WKBR, WCGY, WSRS, WGAW. Most of them don't exist as anything that resembles a radio station. I'm always ready to trade war stories...

(I posted as "Mary" before.) I well remember AFKN in Korea. also AFN when in Germany.
ReplyDeleteSeeing that top photo, AFKN Seoul, as a 'one-story' building was cause for a 'double take'. When I was there it was a two story building and, of course, I thought it was simply built as a two story building. That's the great thing about the old photos... you learn some history and get a grin.
