USA: We Have Ways - Men Against Fire
from WW2 Pod: We Have Ways of Making You Talk · host Goalhanger
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.
