Looking for record album or movie paraphernalia for Dad


My dad was in this movie when he was 18 and enlisted in the Air Force. He was a part of the Air Force choir then. He's now 83 years old. I'd like to find the original record album released by Decca back then, but don't know where to go. I'd also like to find anything else available related to this movie, or the stage play, which he was also in. His name is Eugene B. Nelson, and he had one heck of a voice back then...darn good lookin too. :) Are there any others out there who were also in this movie or play who are still around?
Bless you,

Hi Laurie,
I'm looking for Donald Richards, who was in the original play "Winged Victory" in 1944. Would your dad know who he is or what he looks like? I have a photo of Donald Richards, who is my father, but don't know if it is the same Donald Richards. I would be happy to email it to you.
Thanks,

I have a very nice program/magazine from the play production. It includes many photos and lots of information about the cast.

Hi jackboot. I might be interested if you still have this.

Thanks,

Hi Laurie,

I still have it, but I'm not parting with it. I consider it very valuable and it is, to me, anyway.

But, maybe I could send some scans or something. Send me a private msg and we can discuss the matter. The program for the live show doesn't have much of anything to do with the film, except that some of the same players were probably in both. There's lots to see, though, and it's wonderful!

Thanks!
