Henry Aurand

  • ... that during World War II, Major General Henry Aurand had his own weekly radio show? Source: "His weekly radio talk, The General's Review provided inspiration for another, more ambitious series of programs, 21 Stars featuring the activities of each service command. Originating at Fort Sheridan, it was broadcast Saturdays during the summer of 1944 on the Blue Network." Reese, John Russell (1984). Supply Man: The Army Life of Lieutenant General Henry S. Aurand, p. 74. Offline I'm afraid.

  • 16px Hi Hawkeye7, review follows: article more than 5x expanded between 11 and 19 July; article is of good length and well written; article is cited inline throughout to reliable sources; not all the sources are online, but I found no paraphrasing issues in a spot check on the non-PD sources; hook is interesting and mentioned in the article, source is offline but happy to AGF it support it on the basis of the above quote (one query though, does the second sentence definitely relate to The General's Review and not 21 Stars? It doesn't affect the hook but the Blue Network part is used in the article); a QPQ has been carried out - Dumelow (talk) 14:06, 22 July 2020 (UTC)
    I have re-worded the article to hew closer to the source, and say only that 21 Stars was broadcast on the Blue Network. I am unsure whether the source refers to both shows or not, but I am fairly sure that Aurand's show was broadcast only in the Chicago area. I added this source on 21 Stars. It says that 21 Stars originated "in the Blue network central division studies in Chicago". Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:46, 22 July 2020 (UTC)
    Thanks Hawkeye7, this Decatur, Illinois newspaper listing for 2 November 1943 states: "Gen. H. S. Aurand, commanding general of the Sixth Service Command, reviews the week's news from the command today on Columbia's new all G. I. show, The General's Review on WBBM at 9:45 p. m.". Though I'm not sure if the correct link would be WBBM-FM or WBBM (AM). DYK radio station expert Raymie, may be able to help identify the right one? - Dumelow (talk) 05:48, 23 July 2020 (UTC)
    Template:Ping AM. Without a doubt. The FM was still experimental enough to not be a consideration. Raymie (tc) 06:37, 23 July 2020 (UTC)
    Thanks Raymie! - Dumelow (talk) 06:38, 23 July 2020 (UTC)
    Thanks both of you! I have added this to the article. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 22:59, 23 July 2020 (UTC)
