G.I. Jive was a popular Armed Forces Radio Service (AFRS) program during World War II, designed to entertain and uplift U.S. military personnel. Hosted by the charming "G.I. Jill," the show featured swing, jazz, and pop music, alongside listener requests and cheerful commentary. Jill's warm, conversational tone made her a beloved figure, connecting servicemen overseas to a slice of home. Episodes typically lasted about 15 minutes, delivering hit songs from artists like Glenn Miller, Bing Crosby, and The Andrews Sisters. Beyond music, the show served as a morale booster, reminding soldiers of the culture and camaraderie awaiting them after the war. G.I. Jive remains an iconic example of wartime radio entertainment.
