Charlie had almost 50 years in Los Angeles radio. That's hard for me to even conceive. Talent..
Charlie was with us from 1971-96. His day jobs were some of the greatest LA top 40s ever.

AFTN Thailand May 10, 1970
Today is the anniversary of a very sad day.
On April 10th 1970 an unarmed photo recon plane was returning from a mission in Vietnam. It missed the runway, crashed and destroyed the building for AFTN Udorn.
We lost nine airmen that day.

Golden Days Of Radio 1970
The Golden Days of Radio ran almost as long as AFRTS itself. It was the last program recorded for the network under the 'old system'. Mr Bresse was a storehouse of information about radio in the 1940s and 50s. It was always fun to hear.
