About this listen

 "Mail Call" was a popular and groundbreaking Old Time Radio show that aired from 1942 to 1945 during World War II. The show was produced by the Armed Forces Radio Service (AFRS) and featured messages from and to American soldiers serving overseas. It served as a way for soldiers to receive messages from loved ones back home and to communicate with one another.
One of the most notable aspects of "Mail Call" was the host, Bing Crosby, who was a major star at the time. Crosby opened each episode with his signature line, "Mail Call-a-rino!" He would read letters and messages sent in by soldiers and their families, as well as share news and entertainment from back home. The show also featured musical performances by popular artists of the time.
"Mail Call" was not only entertaining for the troops but also played a crucial role in boosting morale and providing a connection to home during a difficult time. The show was highly appreciated by the soldiers, with many writing in to express their gratitude for the opportunity to hear from their loved ones.
Overall, "Mail Call" was a heartwarming and uplifting radio program that helped lift the spirits of American troops during World War II and provided a sense of connection and community during a time of separation and uncertainty.
