Back in WW2 , Bob Hope made some USO trips to the Pacific theater . As they traveled there they had to make stops along the way to rest and refuel for the next leg . They would unload and set up the set and do a show for the purpose of entertaining the troops and giving the stage crew and cast practice . One of these stops was in Yuma and someone had a reel to reel voice recorder and taped the first 1/2 hour or so of the show ( till the tape ran out ) . They played that on the air several years ago and the station was kind enough to make me a copy . I'll find it one of these days .
