79. The Greatest WW2 Battle You’ve Never Heard Of

from Hidden History Happy Hour with Alex & Bryan

Alex and Bryan welcome military historian and author Jack Bowsher to discuss “Thunder Run Meiktila 1945,” a triumphant and consequential campaign through the jungles of Burma. They’re also joined by a great friend of the show and decorated British Army combat veteran. Oh, and a key factor in the win was a 1/2-naked guy freezing his twigs and berries in a river. Thanks to our sponsor The Wolf Project for making this happen!
