Send us Fan MailFour British Army veterans ride Ducatis across Europe to confront the hardest chapters of World War II—and to share them with honesty and respect. In this episode we visit Dachau Concentration Camp, Courtroom 600, Nuremberg Trials, Colditz Castle (Oflag IV-C), Patton Memorial Museum, Plzeň, Lidice Memorial, Operation Anthropoid sites in Prague (Heydrich ambush & Church of Sts Cyril and Methodius), Stalag Luft III, Żagań (The Great Escape), and Auschwitz-Birkenau.Expect a powerful, thoughtfully filmed military history travel documentary: veteran reflections, on-location narration, museum access, memorial etiquette, and cinematic 4K multi-camera footage captured on the move. We pair real-life military stories (1970s–2010s, BAOR/Cold War Germany), quiet moments of remembrance, and the camaraderie that got us through service—and still gets us down the road.
