REMEMBERING WHEN TOMMY ATKINS HIT GOLD, SWORD AND JUNO BEACH :  1/8: Brothers in Arms: One Legendary Tank Regiment's Bloody War from D-Day to VE-Day, by James Holland https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08YS123SZ/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_hsch_vapi_tkin_p1_i0 In the annals of World War II, certain groups of soldiers stand out, and among the most notable were the Sherwood Rangers. Originally a cavalry unit in the last days of horses in combat, whose officers were landed gentry leading men who largely worked for them, they were switched to the “mechanized cavalry” of tanks in 1942. Winning acclaim in the North African campaign, the Sherwood Rangers then spearheaded one of the D-Day landings in Normandy on June 6, 1944; led the way across France; were the first British troops to cross into Germany, and contributed mightily to Germany's surrender in May 1945. Inspired by Stephen Ambrose's Band of Brothers, the acclaimed WWII historian James Holland memorably profiles an extraordinary group of citizen soldiers constantly in harm's way. Their casualties were horrific, but their ranks immediately refilled. Informed by never-before-seen documents, letters, photographs, and other artifacts from Sherwood Rangers' families—an ongoing fraternity—and by his own deep knowledge of the war, Holland offers a uniquely intimate portrait of the war at ground level, introducing heretofore unknowns such as the Commanding Officer Stanley Christopherson, the squadron commander John Semken, Sergeant George Dring, and other memorable characters who helped the regiment become the single unit with the most battle honors of any ever in the British army. He weaves the Sherwood Rangers' exploits into the larger narrative and strategy of the war, and also brings fresh analysis to the tactics used. Following the Sherwood Rangers' brutal journey over the dramatic eleven months between D-Day and V-E Day, Holland presents a vivid and original perspective on the endgame of WWII in Europe. 1944 GOLD BEACH

Préparez-vous à lʹim-préparable, à lʹhorreur brute, ultime, absolue, quand on envoie au casse-pipe des milliers de jeunes gens pour prendre dʹassaut les plages de Normandie. Nom de code : Opération Neptune. Le Jour J, le D Day, le 6 juin 1944, cʹest le débarquement de Normandie. Une opération militaire alliée amphibie et aéroportée. On va attaquer le Reich allemand par les airs et par la mer et débarquer avec des milliers de soldats. Cʹest le point de bascule de la Seconde Guerre Mondiale. En 1998, un cinéaste américain dans Il faut sauver le soldat Ryan, Saving Private Ryan, rejoue devant ses caméras le débarquement à Omaha Beach avec une floppée de bons acteurs, Tom Hanks en tête. Steven Spielberg filme au plus près, au cœur de la bataille la mort, la rage, la peur, la lâcheté, le courage, la haine. Cʹest du jamais vu. Le réalisme est prégnant. On montre la guerre comme on ne lʹavait pas vue depuis Platoon, comme on ne lʹavait pas vue depuis les films dʹactualités tournés caméra au poing à lʹépoque. Décors réalistes et mission surréaliste quand huit hommes sont désignés pour en sauver un seul qui pourra rentrer en Amérique tandis quʹeux continuent de se battre. Le film pose des questions morales et Steven Spielberg en rend compte, documente, travaille au plus proche de la réalité. A sa sortie, les critiques sont élogieuses. Le film laisse les spectatrices et les spectateurs pantelants. Cʹest un succès commercial, et il remporte de nombreux prix. Nommé pour 11 oscars, Saving Private Ryan (Il faut sauver le soldat Ryan) en reçoit 5 dont celui du meilleur réalisateur pour Steven Spielberg.

Bob Barry's Unearthed Interviews

This Canadian actor was most famous for his role as Montgomery Scott (Scotty), the chief engineer of the Starship Enterprise in the television and film series “Star Trek.” He did appear in other TV shows and movies, but was limited due to being typecast. James Doohan in real life was with a Canadian infantry division that landed at Juno Beach on D-Day. He was accidentally hit by six rounds of fire from the gun of a Canadian sentry. A bullet to his chest was stopped by a cigarette case given to him by his brother. One bullet hit his right middle finger, which had to be amputated. He would conceal that hand in the movies, sometimes using a flesh-colored glove. Doohan was part of a radio group, “The Neighborhood Playhouse” which included Leslie Nielsen and Tony Randall. Did James use an accent when he played Scotty? He'll answer that question. Because of the engineer character he played on “Star Trek,” many students pursued careers in engineering. The Milwaukee School of Engineering presented Doohan with an honorary degree in engineering.

In this episode of the podcast with my guest Terri Brault, we discuss Canadian WW2 Normandy sites you can visit. Canadian forces were heavily involved in the D-Day landings on June 6, 1944, which marked the beginning of the end for Nazi Germany. The Canadian 3rd Infantry Division, along with the 2nd Armoured Brigade, landed at Juno Beach, a stretch of coast located between Sword and Gold beaches. Facing heavily fortified German defenses, they experienced fierce resistance, but their courage and determination saw them overcome these formidable obstacles. By the end of the day, Canadian forces had penetrated deeper into France than any other Allied force, a testament to their discipline and valor. Canadian troops also played a significant role in the subsequent Battle of Normandy, a grueling two-month campaign to liberate the region from German occupation. They were central to Operation Totalize, an offensive designed to break through German defenses south of Caen, a strategic city that witnessed some of the war's bloodiest conflicts. Moreover, Canadian soldiers were victims of one of the war's most infamous atrocities at the Abbaye d'Ardenne, where 20 prisoners of war were executed by the 12th SS Panzer Division, a crime later prosecuted as a war crime. Today, the Canadian War Cemetery at Beny-sur-Mer, where about 2,000 soldiers are laid to rest, serves as a somber reminder of the ultimate sacrifice these brave men made in the pursuit of freedom and peace. Their bravery, tenacity, and sacrifice significantly contributed to the successful Normandy campaign, marking a pivotal turn in the course of World War II. Their legacy lives on in the form of numerous memorials, museums, and preserved historical sites in Normandy, and their heroic efforts continue to be honored and remembered by both Canadians and the international community.  Let's talk about the places in Normandy you can visit to honor their sacrifice and valor.

On June 6th, 1944, all the planning of Operation Overlord would be put to the test when over 120,000+ Allied soldiers stormed the beaches of Normandy, France. Their goal was to establish a foothold in occupied France that would allow them to begin pushing the Nazi's back. Standing in their way was Hitler's Atlantic Wall. What took place that day can only be described as the most pivotal point in WW2 as thousands of paratroopers dropped behind enemy lines and infantry stormed the beaches beginning what would be the end for the Third Reich.

On this week's episode, Seth Dillon, the CEO of Babylon Bee, joins us to talk about the importance of satire, and why the left is hellbent on destroying it. We discuss why mockery is not hate speech, what it's like being censored for speaking the truth, and how the absurd has become reality. Finally, Seth shares with us some of his favorite Babylon Bee headlines. Seth Dillon is the CEO of The Babylon Bee, the world's most trusted, factually accurate news source. Taking on the tone of a traditional news media publication, the Bee satirizes real-world events and public figures. Dillon's experience with censorship and de-platforming has placed him on the front lines of the battle for free speech in the public square. He now speaks on college campuses and at conferences across the country about the effectiveness of humor, the moral imperative of mockery, and the dangers of censorship. He occasionally signs off Twitter to enjoy time with his wife and two sons in Juno Beach, Florida.--She Thinks is a podcast for women (and men) who are sick of the spin in today's news cycle and are seeking the truth.

The US Navy's recruiting slogan used to be, "It's not just a job, it's an adventure!" Sometimes that applies to this podcast, too. This week Toby comes to us from Mexico City and James from rural England where broadband is non-existent and hard drives go to die. After taping on Monday, James' computer committed seppuku, leaving us without a show. But we've gotten the band back together and we're here with your weekly fix. It's a North American sandwich to start off - Toby talks about his trip to Mexico and then the guys launch into the "state of emergency" in Canada. What has happened to the country that produced the Hundred Days campaign, the Raid on Dieppe and the storming of Juno Beach on D-Day? On the domestic front we talk about Prince Andrew's out-of-court settlement with Virginia Giuffre in the Jeffrey Epstein scandal. Finally in Culture Corner we all contemplate "The Jack Reacher Diet."
