Phil Silvers
Broadcast: 9th September 1943
Added: Sep 27 2001
This show was devoted exclusively to recruiting dollars for the Third War Loan. And for that reason the show was “Coming in on a Wing and a Prayer”, thanks to Bing Crosby, John Scott Trotter and his Orchestra, The Music Maids and Hal and the Charioteers. The guest star to help with the war bonds drive was that up and coming 20th Century Fox comedian Phil Silvers, or you may know him now as that disciple of discipline Sergeant Bilko.
