+ The Man Behind The Gun was a series characterized by superlatives in virtually every measurable dramatic category. Produced at the height of the aftermath of America's entry into World War II, the CBS series was one of their finest ever mounted during the War years. Producer William N. Robson traveled a reported 10,000 miles collecting sound bites, recording on the spot interviews with fighting men in the field, and coordinating with military security and intelligence officials. The security and intelligence coordination was key to producing the most accurate, descriptive and visceral accounts of our men behind the guns, without compromising operational security. William Robson sought and obtained the active support of all branches of the War Department in order to provide CBS listeners with the most authentic, accurate, and compelling accounts of America's far-flung war activities while still protecting key intelligence. The result was arguably the most historically accurate, real-time portrayals of our fighting men in the field and their stirring, extraordinary, and often heroic acts in beating back the Axis powers to end both the European and Pacific conflicts in the shortest time and with the least casualties.
