Is Anita Ellis the same person as the radio singer known simply as "Anita" late in WW2? 'Anita' appeared on some AFRS radio programs, e.g. AFRS 'Basic Musical Library' #20, and AFRS 'Personal Album'. The voice does sound a bit similar. 'Anita' was described as a "five foot two bundle of loveliness", but how tall was Anita Ellis?
