  • Best WW2 podcast. A must listen

    What an excellent podcast. If you are serious about learning more about WW2 history and re-enacting then this is the podcast for you. The three co-hosts may not know everything about WW2, and who really does, but they are learning right along with the listeners. I have advanced my own knowledge just by listening to these three and their guests.
