WW2 Pod: We Have Ways of Making You Talk

USA: We Have Ways - Men Against Fire

In his seminal book, 'Men Against Fire', Brigadier General S.L.A Marshall (better known as SLAM) made the extraordinary claim that fewer than 25% of men in combat actually fired their weapons at the enemy.
Oft cited, hugely influential, but had Marshall got it right? Al Murray, James Holland and John McManus pick apart SLAM's research in another excellent WHW USA episode.

Achtung! Achtung!

Comedian Al Murray and historian James Holland discuss all matters WW2.

WW2 Pod: We Have Ways of Making You Talk is a bi-weekly show exploring the war in close up. James and Al have a stunning knowledge of their subject, but don't expect a linear narrative. The boys love a tangent and a forgotten tale.

We Have Ways of Making You Talk roams down forgotten front lines, casts new villains and makes the case for unlikely heroes.
