Amazing History

Listening to these live radio broadcasts from WWII gives me goose bumps - live coverage of D-Day landings, the dropping of the atom bombs, the death of FDR, Churchill's magnificent oratory, the fall of Berlin, Hitler dies

The greatest show on earth - total global war we'll never see again.

So weird the accents of American and Canadian broadcasters, like the way actors in the 30s and 40s talked, even regular people in man on the street interviews had that peculiar diction.
