If Freedom Failed - 1951
"If Freedom Fails" continues to part two. James Whitmore stars. What could happen if the communists took over sports? In the early 50s, there was a loto of programming like the "I Was a Communist for the FBI" and "I Lead Three Lives" . This is the most thoughtful.

If Freedom Failed - 1951
In the late 1940s and 50s AFRTS took their mission to educate the troops very seriously and did several high quality command information dramas, usually with the biggest stars. These disks were generally retained by the stations to be broadcast multiple times. In 1951, the had to explain the threat of Communism. "If Freedom Failed" tells that story.
