Wayne,
I haven't seen any responses to your question so I guess you have us all
stumped. I'm guessing that it was not a 40's era comedian but, more likely,
a 50's era comedian when (as I recall) that kind of schtik started with Bob
Newhart. I remember listening to an LP at a friends house in the mid 50's
that featured Bob Newhart. It did not have a radio instructor on it but
otherwise was very similar.

I heard this very funny piece on NPR a couple of years ago about a 40's-era
comedian who did skits about military life. In one skit he played a
radio-class instructor disgusted with a new class of underachieving
recruits who were there to learn the code. He chastised them for not
studying while bragging that he could teach anyone the code, even "a dog,"
which cracked up the studio audience (or, I'm not sure which, prompted the
laugh-track operator to open it up all the way).
Being not quite 50, I wasn't there. I bet a few of you were :) I
couldn't find his name with a web search. Anyone have a clue?
tnx
