Charles Windolph Radio Ad

Charles Windolph was one of the few survivors of the Little Big Horn 7th Cavalry that survived well into the 20th century. Because of this there are many newspaper articles, photos, interviews, etc. that exist. This is unlike the typical trooper where it is a rare discovery to find a simple photograph.

On Sunday, October 18, 1942, Windolph was interviewed on KOBH radio (currently KOTA 1380 AM, Rapid City, South Dakota). Here is an ad from the October 17, 1942 Rapid City Journal promoting the interview with the Little Big Horn veteran.

I would love to find a copy of this broadcast. There are thousands of old radio shows that are available for listening on the internet. It would be a true treasure if a recording of this Windolph interview exists.
