The Sound of War is an 18-episode radio show that features a range of sound clips, some rare, from notable figures such as Adolf Hitler, Franklin Roosevelt, Winston Churchill, Benito Mussolini, Neville Chamberlain, General Douglas McArthur, Charles DeGaulle, and Hermann Goering. The series used the tagline, " The Actual Sound Record of World War II. The drama preserved for all time through the medium of radio. An era not to be forgotten." The show places emphasis on the Fall of France period with three unique episodes dedicated to it. Produced by Bud Greenspan and narrated by his brother David Greenspan, the show aimed to preserve the dramatic events of World War II for future generations.< / p > < p > Although it is unclear when The Sound of War was first broadcast, it appears to be from the late 1950s or early 1960s. The series was produced by Westinghouse Broadcasting in 1965 and carried a similar tagline to that of its British counterpart, the 1973-74 television documentary series The World At War. The Sound of War provided a unique perspective on the history of World War II through its collection of sound clips and the actual voices of many key figures. The Greenspan brothers went on to produce many film sports documentaries, predominantly focused on the Olympics, with David Perry also being remembered as " the voice of the Olympics."
