Beyond Victory

"Here's our mission." A combat crew receives final instructions just before taking off in a mighty YB-17 bomber from a bombardment squadron base at the field, Langley Field, Va.

"The Beyond Victory Radio Program (1943-1944) was a series of weekly broadcasts begun in 1943 under the combined auspices of the World Wide Broadcasting foundation and the [Carnegie] Endowment to give Americans a clear and unbiased picture of postwar issues through discussions by speakers outstanding in their respective fields. The Office of War Information made use of Beyond Victory scripts in overseas broadcasts." (Carnegie Endowment for International Peace)
