Here are four clippings about John’s early years with the American Forces Network in Frankfurt. Be careful shaving next to gas heaters!
POSTSCRIPT: In the comments, Nathan asked if John’s Halloween broadcasts have survived. I did a little searching, and found that excerpts from both were aired on a series of programs marking the 25th anniversary of the AFN. You can hear some of the Frankenstein’s Castle broadcast here, starting at 15:25, and some of the show from the Great Pyramid here, starting at 46:54.
I would like to hear the two Halloween broadcasts from the Great Pyramid, and the Frankenstein Castle respectively. Wonder if they still exist?

I’m glad you enjoyed them. I wish there were longer clips available!
