This was taped from a short wave broadcast, or so it sounds. Later the MEBO II was sunk in the Mediterranean Sea by the Libyan Navy, as it and the MEBO had been acquired for their target practices...Rather sad ending.

Indeed...that "Man Of Action"tune from The Les Reed Orchestra,brings a glow to my heart.

You can still listen to RNI on the net. rni (dot) net (dot) ms will take you to the site to find the music feed. It is great and still has the unique sound of RNI

I grew up listening to RNI, and it made me kind of sad to hear this recording but at the same time it was nice,, fantastic tribute to some real unsung heros of the day
