12 Days of Christmas Radio Shows, Part 12: "Berlin, 1945"

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

For this final day of Christmas I'm featuring a quiet drama from (what else) Quiet, Please. The story features a group of soldiers celebrating Christmas together in Berlin just after the end of World War II. As the soldiers yearn to be home and try to lighten their spirits, they're joined by a man who isn't a soldier, yet seems familiar to everyone in the room.

"Berlin, 1945" originally aired December 26, 1948 and was written by Quiet, Please's creator Wyllis Cooper. The man who spoke to you was Ernest Chappell.
