Kilroy was Here!

Come on down to the U.S.O. to see whats going on!

Ships leaving a navy yard are being sunk by Nazi U-boats. Suspicion points to a nearby U.S.O. Club which may be harboring spies. Action builds to an exciting climax during a wild radio broadcast.

Kilroy was here is a musical salute to all of the men and women who fought World War II. With a lot of 1940's nostalgia: jukeboxes, jitterbug, and the mysterious appearance of those "Kilroy was here!" drawings. An extensive "1940's Glossary of Terms" with your opportunity to understanding life in 1942, at a U.S.O. club located in Brooklyn, New York, when things weren't looking too good for Uncle Sam.

The initials U.S.O. stand for United Service Organizations. Founded in 1941, during the early dark days of World War II, its mission was to supply a "Home Away From Home" for America's on-the-move military personnel.
