World War II - the Human Condition

History EN ↓ 9 episoder

If you love history as much as I do, and want to avoid the history lectures, then join us for a conversation about the human condition. This podcast focuses on the POWs in the Pacific. The battles that lead up to their internment and the battles leading to their liberation. I will also include some amazing stories from Europe that focus on the how did they survive that situation. So join us as I tell you the stories of our fathers, grandfathers and maybe even our great-grandfathers.
