	TheHistoryNet \| Vietnam \| Adrian Cronauer: Air Force Radio Announcer in Vietnam
		Adrian Cronauer is the name many people associate with the movie Good Morning, Vietnam -- the story of an Air Force radio announcer who used imagination and innovation to make more of a difference with his craft than his superiors felt they could tolerate.
		The real Adrian Cronauer, although he may not be as outrageous as the myth makes him, is a man whose talents and experience give him a unique perspective on the Vietnam War.
		Cronauer did, however, swim against the current of the staid conventions of that time, risking the ire of his bosses on more than one occasion.

		My name is Adrian Cronauer, and I'm sure that some of you might be saying to yourselves, "Why do I know that name?" I'm the guy that Robin Williams portrayed in the movie, Good Morning, Vietnam (available from the Arlington County Library, by the way).
		In that film, Cronauer was portrayed (albeit loosely) by Robin Williams whose performance was nominated for an Academy Award.
		Earlier in his career, Cronauer lived in New York City voicing television and radio commercials, and before that, owned an advertising agency, managed a radio station, was program director of a television station, and a TV news anchorman.

		While Cronauer is in fact a real person and was in fact stationed in Armed Forces Radio in Saigon during the Vietnam War, the similarity pretty much ends right there.
		In fact, Adrian Cronauer is on record as saying he never would've gotten away with even half the antics that Robin Williams put into the role.
		Cronauer's actual departure from Armed Forces Radio and the country itself under escort by a pair of MPs is touching and sweet, as well as funny, and I've never seen baseball played with melons before.

	FCLJ Vol 47, No. 1 - R. Rhodes
		Cronauer's view is that broadcasting is not different from the printed press, and it should have the same constitutional protection.
		Cronauer's analysis is especially strong when it puts to rest the "scarcity of the spectrum" argument.
		Cronauer clearly demonstrates that those who support the Fairness Doctrine, such as those who supported the Red Lion holding, are mistaken in assuming that broadcasters who compete for licenses naturally have a diversity of views on public affairs.

		Adrian Cronauer, a disc jockey with the Armed Forces Vietnam Network, known then as the Armed Forces Radio Station, made this saying very popular.
		When Adrian came to the Armed Forces Radio Station, he pushed for reforms in the military broadcasting, but many people thought it was hopeless.
		"(Adrian Cronauer) increased the entertainment of (these) announcements by making them sound like commercials." (Shweder) Cronauer also used a lot of humor, but it was mostly pre-recorded, and he used very common material used by morning shows during the mid-1960's.

	Film: 'Good Morning, Vietnam' - New York Times
		Adrian Cronauer (Robin Williams), an Armed Forces Radio disk jockey previously stationed in Crete, lands in Saigon to breathe a little life into the local programming.
		Until Cronauer's arrival, the AFR Saigon station has depended largely on the music of Mantovani and Percy Faith and helpful hints on how to withdraw books from the Army's lending libraries, interrupted from time to time by sanitized newscasts.
		Though behind-the-lines sabotage is on the rise, and huge numbers of additional troops are arriving daily, the programming of the Saigon station reflects a prescribed sunniness that has less to do with the increasingly grim reality of Vietnam than with that of a giant rec room for pre-teens of the 1950's.

	Good Morning Vietnam Veterans :: ABC Capricornia
		Dr Cronauer says he's proud that the film was the first to show the personnel in Vietnam as they really were.
		The media, Adrian Cronauer says, are not promoting positive values sufficiently; values such as love of God, love of country, setting goals and striving to achieve them, the work ethic, freedom, justice, and equality - the things those soldiers thought important enough to fight for, even die for.
		Dr Cronauer told the assembled audience that those principles have to be shared with the next generation.

	Good Morning Vietnam DVD review
		Cronauer is in the Air Force but not a military type, something that annoys the utterly strict Dickerson, a tough former Special Forces man who has been shunted into radio.
		While Cronauer was brought in to boost troop morale, no one is prepared for just how funny he is. He begins his 6 AM show with the sign-on shout Good morning, Vietnam!”; and continues to make fun of everything from the weather and the state of the conflict to the President and the Pope.
		Cronauer shucks aside the boring lectures and instead teaches his students how real people speak on the streets of America, introducing them to slang and other fun stuff (another opportunity for Williams to freestyle).

	The real life of Adrian Cronauer
		Cronauer, who keynotes this year's IWCE 2005, will be forever linked with the manic comic thanks to the brilliant riff Williams turned on Cronauer's military service memories in the movie “Good Morning Vietnam.”;
		Cronauer honed the morning gig at Iraklion Air Station, evolving a “calm, matter-of-fact ‘Good Morning Iraklion’” into the Howard Dean-like primal yell immortalized by the movie.
		Cronauer's deadpan delivery hides a quiet sense of humor that will never be confused with Williams' mania.

		Adrian Cronauer is a real person who is an acquaintance and occassional lunch-date of mine.
		Adrian is a lawyer with the Department of Defense whose specialty is working with the governments of North Korea and the Vietnam trying to locate the remains of military personnel who are still listed as "Missing in Action." This is a very worthy effort, and Adrian is a very worthy guy.
		I've never asked Cronauer if he really started his radio show with "Goooooood Morning, Vietnam" as Robin Williams does in the movie, but we will stipulate - for the next four months or so - that he did.
