Re-Imagined Radio presents D-Day Stories

When Allied forces invaded Europe to repel German invaders on June 6, 1944, radio listeners heard history as it happened. War reporting is the basis of Re-Imagined Radio’s “D-Day Radio Stories,” which commemorates the 81st anniversary of the invasion. “D-Day Radio Stories” premieres at 1 p.m. June 16 over KXRW-FM (99.9), Vancouver, and KXRY-FM (91.1 and 107.1), Portland. It features some of the earliest instances of using recorded material in radio news broadcasts, allowing listeners to experience events as if they were there. Samples in the episode were recorded in the air, on the land and at sea. More information is available at reimaginedradio.fm.
