The American forces network — Europe

Abstract

The American Forces Network in Europe is one of the best known radio services in the world. Although programmed by and for Americans, its activities and scope are nearly unknown to most people living in the United States. Major Ovid L. Bayless worked as a consultant with AFN during the summer of 1966, and currently is Associate Professor of Speech and English at the United States Air Force Academy. He earned his bachelor's and master's degrees in broadcasting from Baylor University, and his Ph.D. from the University of Denver.
