GI Jive was a 15-minute radio program broadcast to and by the Armed Forces Radio Service (AFRS) for military entertainment during World War II. Its initial frequency of five days per week later increased to six days per week. The disc jockey played popular songs of the day, often by request from the soldiers.
These episodes are hosted by Martha Wilkerson (aka "GI Jill"). Martha dramatically boosted solder morale while loved and viewed as a voice from home by homesick soldiers.
