The March of Time
Allied Advances and Reeducating German Youth
von
The March of Time was a documentary-style radio program that brought current events to listeners through dramatized reporting. This recording’s title points to two subjects: Allied advances during World War II and the effort to reeducate German youth.
The program blended narration, acted scenes, and sound effects to present news and public affairs in an immediate, theatrical form. Its reports often drew on contemporary events and issues, using voices and scenes to convey the people and stakes behind the headlines.
The result is a vivid period document as well as a piece of radio storytelling: a chance to hear how wartime developments and questions about Germany’s future were framed for listeners at the time.
This recording is part of the Old Time Radio collection.
