SENTIMENTAL JOURNEY ~Doris Day ~ Les Brown & his Orchestra ~Columbia Records ~1944. With the exception of, possibly, Glenn Miller's IN THE MOOD and a few others, SENTIMENTAL JOURNEY stands out as one of the most remembered songs of the war years. By the end of 1945, the war was coming to an end & husbands, boyfriends, etc. would be returning home and SENTIMENTAL JOURNEY reflected the feelings of millions across the United States.
The picture's included in this video were pictures that I personally liked, though I am not related to any one in them. I dedicate this video to those who were in the military, serving The United States during the "war years" and to those who lived through it safely here at home.

  • Sentimental Journey was "our" song, sailor Jon Bender from Perth Amboy, NJ, and I, in 1944. We lost track of each other....I hope he came home safe from overseas and had a wonderful life. Thanks for posting. OneKewpie

  • My grandmother sang this song to my gramps the night he passed it was so beautiful! I love this era and im so happy that my grandfather shared his stories to me about his Navy days. I miss you gramps. I love you with all my heart.

    I was in the south Pacific in 1945 when I first heard Sentimental Journey.

    The girl I left behind, I kissed under the town clock, before heading for overseas; we both vowed that we would wait for each other no matter what happened.

    I got her "Dear John" on my 19th birthday, August 6, 1945; I don't know which bomb had a greater effect on me, the one that we dropped on Hiroshima that day or the one she sent to me.

    Frag.
