Those sound bites from Korea are incredibly rare!! Murrow says A Company, 23rd Tank Battalion but I think he mislabeled the unit and actually meant Tank Company, 23rd Infantry Regiment, 2nd Infantry Division (there was no 23rd Tank Battalion in Korea). Those scenes would have been filmed somewhere between Kapyong-ni and Hwachon in South Korea, where the 2nd Infantry Division was located in December 1951
Did a bit of research. It wasn't “CBS", instead CBS was around long before that station. They instead were a network affiliate and lost their affiliation.
9:40--A live shot of CBS Columbia Square at 6121 Sunset Blvd., less than a year before Television City would open for business just a few miles west (KNXT/KCBS-2 would remain at Columbia Square until 2005). 10:05--The old NBC Sunset and Vine building, a couple of years before NBC-Burbank would open for business. Sunset and Vine shut down in 1962, after Channel 4's news operations moved to Burbank.
Can’t believe this is around still
Oh, if we only had more of him!!
