Scope and Contents
V-Disc was a record label of the U.S. military from October 1943 - May 1949, during World War II and the immediate postwar period. The label was intended to boost the morale of United States military personnel overseas, through special arrangements between the military and private record companies. Each 12-inch disc could hold six and a half minutes of music at 78 rpm.
