 John&#8217;s radio work for the American Forces Network in the &#8217;50s often required him to dramatize basic points about military discipline. In this short script, he had to come up with a PSA about the important but dull subject of traffic safety, and he had to remind American soldiers not to drink too much German beer and to drive carefully on the unfamiliar German roads. To make it more interesting, he told it mostly with sound effects.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m afraid this will disappoint readers who are only interested in John&#8217;s Fortean writing, but I hope some of you will enjoy this little tour de force from the young Keel. Here&#8217;s the first part of three.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5904\" src=\"https:\/\/www.johnkeel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ONEWAYSTREET1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"950\" height=\"1262\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.johnkeel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ONEWAYSTREET1.jpeg 950w, https:\/\/www.johnkeel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ONEWAYSTREET1-226x300.jpeg 226w, https:\/\/www.johnkeel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ONEWAYSTREET1-771x1024.jpeg 771w, https:\/\/www.johnkeel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ONEWAYSTREET1-768x1020.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5905\" src=\"https:\/\/www.johnkeel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ONEWAYSTREET2.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"950\" height=\"1231\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.johnkeel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ONEWAYSTREET2.jpeg 950w, https:\/\/www.johnkeel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ONEWAYSTREET2-232x300.jpeg 232w, https:\/\/www.johnkeel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ONEWAYSTREET2-790x1024.jpeg 790w, https:\/\/www.johnkeel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ONEWAYSTREET2-768x995.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5906\" src=\"https:\/\/www.johnkeel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ONEWAYSTREET3.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"950\" height=\"1263\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.johnkeel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ONEWAYSTREET3.jpeg 950w, https:\/\/www.johnkeel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ONEWAYSTREET3-226x300.jpeg 226w, https:\/\/www.johnkeel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ONEWAYSTREET3-770x1024.jpeg 770w, https:\/\/www.johnkeel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ONEWAYSTREET3-768x1021.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5907\" src=\"https:\/\/www.johnkeel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ONEWAYSTREET4.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"950\" height=\"1245\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.johnkeel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ONEWAYSTREET4.jpeg 950w, https:\/\/www.johnkeel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ONEWAYSTREET4-229x300.jpeg 229w, https:\/\/www.johnkeel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ONEWAYSTREET4-781x1024.jpeg 781w, https:\/\/www.johnkeel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ONEWAYSTREET4-768x1006.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>John&#8217;s radio work for the American Forces Network in the &#8217;50s often required him to dramatize basic points about military discipline.
