Cloak and Dagger is a suspenseful radio series that aired on the NBC network, focusing on the daring missions of OSS agents during World War II. These agents were sent behind enemy lines, fully aware that they might not make it back alive. The show's episodes told gripping stories of patriotism, betrayal, triumph, tragedy, and failure, often with unexpected and dramatic endings. Based on the 1946 book "Cloak and Dagger: The Secret Story of the OSS" by Corey Ford and Alastair MacBain, the show captivated audiences with its thrilling and intense storytelling, evoking the perils and sacrifices of the agents who risked their lives for their country. The theme music set the tone, akin to that of Tales of the Texas Rangers, while the cast brought to life the complex and intriguing characters.</p><p>Broadcast during 1950, Cloak and Dagger aired for 22 episodes on Sundays, later switching to Fridays. Directed by Sherman Marks, the series featured a talented cast, including Raymond Edward Johnson as The Hungarian Giant and Gilbert Mack as Impy the Midget, as well as other notable actors from the New York radio scene. The show was based on true stories from the Office of Strategic Services, bringing an added layer of authenticity and intrigue to the gripping tales. Despite its relatively short run, Cloak and Dagger left a lasting impression in the world of radio dramas and remains a testament to the bravery and sacrifice of the OSS agents during World War II.
