I think one reason this one is tough for me, the show began the year I left home and went in the Navy. I didn't watch a lot of television after that until about 1970.

Probably one of those shows similar to Hawaiian Eye.

Ahh! Well maybe you can guess it by the hints.

New Hint:

Well it's a coincidence you were in the Navy (62-67)! This show is about a different branch of the service and a different war.

Sounds like radio.

Was there a show called "Suspense Theater"?

Close enough. It was "Suspense." I don't recall the announcer's name, but episodes starrred people as varied as Edward G. Robinson, Agness Moorehead and Ozzie Nelson.

Yeah. Julius was either too arrogant or flashy - something- Godfrey fired him.
