Here's an actual photo of the 'foxhole radio', now a story 
well-established and elaborated part of folklore.
This is from 'AFRTS Archive'
http://afrtsarchive.blogspot.com/p/afrts-by-year.html
which has a lot of interesting information about the 'software' aspect 
of ARFRS stations - the programming and announcers.
I am interested in listings of actual station calls and frequencies and 
photos of the stations.
If you have found such and are interested in the same thing, you might 
forward any links to me.
I do plan to work up my own list from the aviation charts i have as well 
as photos from Nat'l Geographic and some other
documents i have.
As for one program i remember hearing in the late 1950s, a serialized 
reading of some KW memoir, "Road to Panmunjom",
that seems to have disappeared entirely without any traces.
