The group was stationed at the AAF Tactical Center, Orlando Army Air Base, Florida, located two miles east of the city. Pinecastle Army Air Field, later named McCoy Air Force Base and now the present day Orlando International Airport, was located south of the city. Harry Salter of the Music Section and V Disc staff flew to Orlando for the session and airsickness was reportedly rampant

These are 16" standard groove 3 mil 33 1/3 rpm discs made from black vinyl for the use in Military Radio Stations.

15 minutes playing time on each side, two discs have a total play time  of 30 minutes.

    Condition: EXCELLENT MINUS, faint scuffs rare fine scratches, dusty needs cleaning. A GREAT COPY    SHIPPING 16" record:  This record cannot be combined with other records. Shipping shown is for packing between large pieces of corrugated cardboard (has worked well on over 50 such shipments in the past, however, on one shipment overseas, the a record was irreversibly bent). We can also think about shipping the record in a box, which will increase the weight.

 

 

We offer combined shipping - pls don't pay before I send you an invoice.
