On the outskirts of North London, near Chipping Barnet and Enfield, stands a marvellous country house, Trent Park that belonged to the Sassoon family. In 1939 it was requisitioned by the British government whereupon it became a luxurious POW camp for German prisoners. Why treat them so kindly? Well senior Wehrmacht and Nazi officers were lulled into a false sense of security, they let their guard down and discussed war plans, and their murderous outlook openly, all of which were recorded and translated by listeners in the cellars of the house. Many of these listeners were Jewish refugees. Today's guest is Jane Thynne, whose new book Appointment in Paris features Trent Park so we discuss that and plenty more including France during the war.

Moin und willkommen zum Fleckenhörer am 1. September 2025, dem weltweiten Antikriegstag, Jahrestag des Überfalls der deutschen Wehrmacht auf Polen 1939! Aktuell gibt es 55 Kriege und bewaffnete Konflikte auf der Welt, das ist seit 1945 trauriger Spitzenwert. Und auch hier vor Ort werden Aufrüstung und Militarisierung vorangetrieben. Mit Beginn des Angriffs Russlands auf die Ukraine wird das immer offensichtlicher. Angst und Verunsicherung vor den Schrecken des Krieges sind berechtigt, doch die derzeitige Politik sichert keinen echten Frieden. Im Gegenteil: Sie treibt die Eskalationsspirale nur noch schneller an. Die Stationierung von Mittelstreckenraketen in Deutschland ist nur eines von vielen Beispielen dafür. Auch rhetorisch wird immer weiter aufgerüstet, wir sollen „kriegstüchtig werden“. Damit sind nicht nur Wehrpflicht oder neue Waffen für die Bundeswehr, sondern auch die Kriegsvorbereitung von Krankenhäusern, Schulen, Infrastruktur und vielem mehr gemeint. Bis 2029 sollen unfassbare 41% des gesamten Haushaltes für Rüstung ausgegeben werden – natürlich immer auf Kosten von uns allen. Denn diese astronomische Summe wird unter anderem im sozialen Bereich eingespart werden. Zwölf Staaten stecken jährlich zwei mehr als Billionen Euro in Rüstung. Von diesem Geld könnten alle Hungerleidenden weltweit mehr als 20 Jahre lang satt werden. Wie sagte Ernst Friedrich 1924 so schön: „Kämpft gegen den Kapitalismus – und Ihr kämpft gegen jeden Krieg!“ Unsere Themen heute im Fleckenhörer: +++ Neumünster schiebt 1,4 Millionen Überstunden – viele zum Nulltarif +++ Klimastreik und Klimacamp auf Borkum: Deutsche Umwelthilfe und Fridays for Future protestieren gegen geplante Gasbohrungen im Wattenmeer +++ Wanderausstellung "Die Lübecker Bucht vor 80 Jahren" wird in Stockelsdorf und Burg auf Fehmarn gezeigt Musik: Schreng Schreng & La La (Düsseldorf/Hamburg) Oxo86 (Bernau) Saa kiljua (Finnland)

Alan Turing ist der Mann, der die Enigma knackte. Jene Verschlüsselungsmaschine, mit der die deutsche Wehrmacht im zweiten Weltkrieg ihre Funksprüche codierte. Bis in die 70iger Jahre hinein blieb Vieles um den Kriegshelden Alan Turing geheim. So heldenhaft und strahlend wie Turing als Mathematiker und Computerpionier unterwegs war, so dunkel und tragisch sind seine letzten Lebensjahre. Der homosexuelle Wissenschaftler wählte den Freitod.

Nous sommes le 15 juillet 1946, à Oberursel, en Allemagne, au N-O de Francfort. C'est ce jour-là que naît officiellement l'Organisation Gehlen (Org). Du nom de Reinhard Gehlen, ancien chef du service de renseignement militaire allemand sur le front de l'Est, durant la Seconde Guerre mondiale. A la fin du conflit, les dirigeants américains, en manque d'informations fiables sur l'URSS, se sont montrés très intéressés par l'expertise de ce militaire de carrière qui a gravi les échelons de la Wehrmacht. A l'été 1945, lui et ses hommes sont secrètement transférés aux États-Unis. L'Org va donc se concentrer sur le renseignement antisoviétique et sera financée par les Américains, notamment par la CIA. Elle servira aussi à « recycler » d'anciens membres de la SS et de la Gestapo. A partir de 1956, l'organisation évolue pour devenir le Bundesnachrichtendienst (BND), le service fédéral de renseignement extérieur de l'Allemagne de l'Ouest. Qui était Reinhard Gehlen dont l'enfance fut marquée par la défaite de l'Allemagne en 1918. Homme de l'ombre, il va traverser le XXe siècle avec un sentiment de revanche. Après la chute de IIIe Reich, il parvient à cacher son passé et devient un espion hors norme et un anticommuniste enragé. Revenons sur le parcours de Reinhard Gehlen et, à travers lui, sur un système controversé des services de renseignement américains et européens. Avec nous : Clément Tibère, pseudonyme d'un haut cadre de la communauté française du renseignement. « Reinhard Gehlen – L'espion du siècle ? » Editions Perrin.

ALEX GERLIS chats to Paul Burke about his WWII spy thriller THE SECOND TRAITOR, Operation Sea Lion, Hitler as military commander, German spies in England and Alan Furst.THE SECOND TRAITOR The countdown to invasion begins... It's September 1940, and British intelligence is on high alert: the Nazi invasion of Britain is imminent. The German navy is assembling a vast fleet in Rotterdam to ferry men and materiel across the Channel. Meanwhile, a sinister organisation called The Group – a collection of British and Irish Nazi collaborators – is at work within the UK trying to pave the way for the Wehrmacht. The Invasion Warning Sub-Committee is established to counter this threat, and Charles Cooper, coming in from the cold after the disintegration of The Annexe, joins up and is tasked with cracking this nefarious network. But that is not the only concern for the spy chiefs: the search for double agent ‘Archie' – the Soviet spy and British traitor – is hotting up: they are now confident he works within MI6, and an elaborate scheme is set up to narrow down the list of suspects… To make things worse, they now know for certain that a second traitor, ‘Bertie', is also in play. With suspicion at paranoia pitch, can MI6 clean house before the Nazis arrive to help them do it?ALEX GERLIS was born in Grimsby, Lincolnshire. He worked for the BBC as a journalist for many years, starting out as a researcher on a three-month contract on Panorama and ending his career there nearly thirty years later as Head of Training in the BBC College of Journalism.  In between, he was an editor of a number of Television News programmes. Alex left the BBC in 2011 to concentrate on his writing.  Alex is married to Sonia and lives in west London and has two daughters and two grandsons, even though he is obviously not old enough to be a grandfather. Contrary to what many readers seem to believe, he's never worked in the world of espionage. Alex has the usual hobbies and interests one expects and has supported Grimsby Town since 1968. His books contain cryptic references to the club, which only Mariners fans will appreciate.Recommendations Alan Furst, le Carré, Graham Greene, IS Berry.Paul Burke writes for Monocle Magazine, Crime Time, Crime Fiction Lover and the European Literature Network, Punk Noir Magazine (fiction contribution).

This book explores the extraordinary story of Jewish POWs in German captivity during the Second World War - extraordinary because of the contrast between Germany's genocidal policy towards Jews on one hand, and its relatively non-discriminatory treatment of Jewish POWs from western countries on the other. The radicalisation of Germany's anti-Semitic policies entered its last phase in June 1941 with the invasion of the Soviet Union; during the following four years, nearly six million Jews were murdered. In parallel, Germany's POW policies had gone through a radicalisation process of their own, resulting in the murder of millions of Soviet POWs, of Allied commando soldiers, and of POW escapees, with Adolf Hitler eventually transferring in July 1944 the responsibility for POWs from the Wehrmacht to Heinrich Himmler, in his role as head of the Replacement Army. And yet, despite all this, Jewish POWs from western countries were usually not discriminated against and were treated, in most cases, according to the 1929 Geneva Convention. Jewish Soldiers in Nazi Captivity combines memoirs, letters, and oral histories with Red Cross camp visit reports and other archival material to challenge the accepted view of the Holocaust as an indiscriminate murder of all Jews in Europe and will help to reshape our understanding of the Holocaust and of Nazi Germany.

Professor Omer Bartov recently wrote an op ed in The New York Times titled “I'm a Genocide Scholar. I Know It When I See It.” The United States Holocaust Memorial Mueseum has cited him as one of the world's leading specialist on genocide. Professor Bartov shares his insight.Omer Bartov Bio: Born in Israel and educated at Tel Aviv University and St. Antony's College, Oxford, Omer Bartov's early research concerned the Nazi indoctrination of the Wehrmacht and the crimes it committed in World War II, analyzed in his books, The Eastern Front, 1941-1945, and Hitler's Army. He then turned to the links between total war and genocide, discussed in his books Murder in Our Midst, Mirrors of Destruction, and Germany's War and the Holocaust. Bartov's interest in representation also led to his study, The "Jew" in Cinema, which examines the recycling of antisemitic stereotypes in film. His more recent work has focused on interethnic relations in the borderlands of Eastern Europe. Recent publications include Erased: Vanishing Traces of Jewish Galicia in Present-Day Ukraine (2007), Anatomy of a Genocide: The Life and Death of a Town Called Buczacz (2018), winner of the National Jewish Book Award, and Tales from the Borderlands: Making and Unmaking the Galician Past (2022). His many edited volumes include Shatterzone of Empires: Coexistence and Violence in the German, Habsburg, Russian, and Ottoman Borderlands (2013), Voices on War and Genocide: Three Accounts of the World Wars in a Galician Town (2020), and Israel-Palestine: Lands and Peoples (2021). Bartov's novel, The Butterfly and the Axe, will be published in 2023.

Alex J. Kay (senior lecture of History at Potsdam University in Berlin) and David Stahel (senior lecturer in History at the University of New South Wales in Canberra) have edited a groundbreaking series of articles on German mass killing and violence during World War II. Four years in the making, this collection of articles spans the breadth of research on these topics and includes some non-English speaking scholars for the first time in a work of this magnitude. Mass Violence in Nazi-Occupied Europe (Indiana UP, 2018) argues for a more comprehensive understanding of what constitutes Nazi violence and who was affected by this violence. The works gathered consider sexual violence, food depravation, and forced labor as aspects of Nazi aggression. Contributors focus in particular on the Holocaust, the persecution of the Sinti and Roma, the eradication of "useless eaters" (psychiatric patients and Soviet prisoners of war), and the crimes of the Wehrmacht. The collection concludes with a consideration of memorialization and a comparison of Soviet and Nazi mass crimes. While it has been over 70 years since the fall of the Nazi regime, the full extent of the ways violence was used against prisoners of war and civilians is only now coming to be fully understood.

Un post rusesc cu licența suspendată se poate întoarce în Letonia

În Letonia, justiția a decis că autoritatea de reglementare în domeniul mass media a anulat ilegal licența unui post TV rusesc care difuzează din exil. Motivul a fost amenințarea la adresa națională.  Justiția letonă a decis că decizia Consiliului Național pentru Mass-Media Electronică de a revoca licența postului de televiziune rusesc independent „Doždj” sau „Rain TV”, care operează în exil este ilegală, relatează lsm.lv. Acest lucru ar putea însemna că televiziunea ar putea transmite din nou în țările baltice, a scris pe Telegram redactorul-șef al Rain TV, Tikhon Dyadko. Autoritatea de reglementare a anunțat deja că va face apel împotriva deciziei. La sfârșitul anului 2022, NEPLP a decis să revoce licența de emisie a postului „Doždj” din cauza amenințărilor la adresa securității naționale și a ordinii publice. Această decizie a fost luată după examinarea unei serii de încălcări precum: nedifuzarea programelor în limba oficială, reprezentarea Crimeei pe hartă ca parte a teritoriului rus. Expoziție despre recrutarea forțată a polonezilor în Wermacht Siteul postului de radio tokfm.pl scrie despre expoziția „Băieții noștri. Locuitori din Pomerania, Gdansk în Armata celui de-al Treilea Reich” care a fost inaugurată pe 12 iulie la  Muzeul din Gdansk. Potrivit organizatorilor, expoziția abordează nu doar cauzele, cursul și consecințele recrutării în masă de către cel de-al Treilea Reich în regiune, ci și ștergerea fenomenului din memorie după 1945. Expoziția a stârnit indignare în rândul politicienilor din partidul președintelui Andrej Duda, Lege și Justiție, de extremă dreapta. Președintele vorbește despre „o provocare morală,” iar  ministrul apărării naționale a declarat că expoziția nu a servit politicii poloneze de comemorare. „Băieții noștri, soldații și civilii, polonezi, au apărat patria împotriva Germaniei naziste până la ultima picătură de sânge. Ei sunt eroii și ei sunt cei care merită să fie incluși în expoziții,” a declarat oficialul. Muzeul s-a opus „evaluărilor nedrepte și superficiale” ale unor persoane care „nu sunt familiarizate cu expoziția în sine sau cu contextul său istoric și educațional”. „Recrutarea forțată a polonezilor în Wehrmacht este o crimă germană care nu poate fi ignorată,” este poziția muzeului. „Arătăm suferința oamenilor care au fost privați de posibilitatea de a alege. Nu suntem de acord să-i portretizăm ca trădători sau colaboratori”, a declarat purtătorul de cuvânt al muzeului. Firmă americană angajată pentru a sparge o grevă în Polonia krytykapolityczna.pl relatează despre greva izbucnită acum o lună la fabrica de coșuri de fum din Gniezno, oraș din centrul țării considerat prima capitală a Poloniei. Aceasta este prima demonstrație de acest fel din oraș după tranziția postcomunistă, dar problema depășește contextul local și arată o criză profundă a statului și a legislației poloneze, comentează sursa citată. Muncitorii au următoarele revendicări: o creștere salarială de 800 de zloți, aproximativ 190 de Euro, mărirea pauzei de la 15 la 30 de minute și reguli echitabile privind bonusurile. Astăzi, contrar a ceea ce susține partea poloneză a conducerii companiei cu capital german, angajații sunt pregătiți să negocieze, dar conducerea a angajat firma americană de avocatură Littler, specializată în combaterea sindicatelor, și îi plătește generos pentru a rezolva greva. Pantera neagră văzută din nou pe podișul Șumen Din vesti.bg aflăm că pantera neagră s-a întors pe podișul Șumen, iar autoritățile au recomandat populației să evite zona.

Operation Barbarossa, launched by Nazi Germany on June 22, 1941, aimed to swiftly conquer the Soviet Union, targeting key cities like Moscow, Leningrad, and Kyiv. Hitler reportedly said a meeting with his generals before the campaign began "We have only to kick in the door and the whole rotten structure will come crashing down," With German forces advancing up to 200 miles per week in the first two months, it looked like Germany would accomplish this goal, nearly reaching Moscow by August. The operation’s rapid pace saw the Wehrmacht encircle and capture millions of Soviet troops, bringing Germany close to victory, though fierce resistance and logistical challenges stalled their progress short of total conquest. The campaign devastated civilian populations, with millions killed through bombings, mass executions, and starvation policies, particularly in occupied regions like Ukraine and Belarus. The Nazis’ brutal tactics, including the Einsatzgruppen death squads, systematically murdered Jews, Romani people, and others, contributing to an estimated 10-14 million civilian deaths across the Soviet Union by the war’s end. To look at these months of fighting in Eastern Eruope, some of the most devastating times in that region’s history, is today’s guest, Richard Hargreaves, author of Opening the Gates of Hell. The combination of unprecedented, rapid military victories coupled with state-sponsored and spontaneous atrocities makes the opening fortnight of the invasion of the Soviet Union unique in the annals of modern warfare.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

At the start of World War II, France was still a world power. The U.S. and many other nations were relying on the French, along with their ally Britian, to stop Hitler. But in just 6 weeks in May and June 1940, the Germans conquered France, Belgium, and The Netherlands; and drove the British off of continental Europe. The incredibly swift German victory completely changed the balance of power in the world; and woke up the isolationist United States.

Wer in Jersey mit offenen Augen durch die Landschaft geht, sieht überall Landmarken aus Beton. Auf der größten der Kanalinseln im Ärmelkanal wurden Bunker, Peilstände und Befestigungsanlagen vor 80 Jahren von den Deutschen hier zurückgelassen, als die Besatzung durch die Wehrmacht am 9. Mai 1945 nach fast fünf Jahren endete. Heute kann man einige dieser Bauten als Ferienunterkünfte mieten - mit einem atemberaubenden Blick über die Küste und das türkisfarbene Meer. „German Industrial Design“ nennt der Vermieter den Stil, den die gemeinnützige Organisation Jersey Heritage inzwischen mit allem möglichen Komfort für die Gäste verbunden hat. Trotz des hohen Freizeitwerts ist man auch im Sommer oft allein am Strand und trifft auf dem Coastal Path beim Wandern selten auf andere Spaziergänger. Immer noch sind die Kanalinseln eine Art Geheimtipp unter Reisenden. Statt durch ein ausgeklügeltes Tourismuskonzept gelenkt zu werden, darf man hier am Leben des kleinen autonomen Inselstaats, dem Bailiwick of Jersey, teilhaben: das Hauptstadtleben in St. Helier schnuppern, surfen, kayaken und mit dem geliehenen Oldtimer durch die schmalen Gassen fahren. Oder man hält in einer der 30 Meeresbuchten die Füße in die Brandung und schlürft ein paar frische Austern, die vor der Küste sorgsam gezogen werden. Jana Magdanz kennt nach vielen Reisen die Insel wie ihre Westentasche und teilt in Zwischen Hamburg und Haiti ihre liebsten Ausflugsziele. Vor allem aber schwärmt sie von der Freundlichkeit der Einheimischen, die trotz ihrer tragisch geteilten Geschichte mit Deutschland, nichts lieber tun, als mit deutschen Urlaubern darüber ins Gespräch zu kommen.

Une saga palpitante sur les derniers mois de la Seconde Guerre mondiale.Juillet 1944. Tandis qu'à l'Est, l'Armée rouge casse définitivement les reins de la Wehrmacht (opération " Bagration") et qu'à l'Ouest, Américains et Britanniques qui piétinaient depuis le Débarquement, percent enfin les défenses allemandes (opération " Cobra"), les chefs alliés sont optimistes : la guerre en Europe sera finie à Noël. Tous se trompent. Elle durera dix mois encore. Les plus coûteux en vies humaines de tout le conflit. Comment l'Allemagne, dont les forces vives – hommes, matériels, infrastructures industrielles, ressources énergétiques – ont été saignées à blanc, a-t-elle pu tenir aussi longtemps ? Pourquoi Hitler, au contraire de Mussolini ou du dictateur roumain Antonescu, n'a-t-il pas été renversé ? Comment l'Union soviétique, dont plus de 20 millions de citoyens ont été exterminés en trois ans, est-elle parvenue, en quelques mois, à recouvrer le terrain perdu et à planter le drapeau rouge au sommet du Reichstag ? Pourquoi les États-Unis passent-ils pour le pays ayant le plus contribué à la victoire sur l'Allemagne alors que sur les 48 millions de morts provoqués par la guerre en Europe, 73 % sont des Russes (16 millions de civils et 9 millions de combattants soit 15 % de la population de l'URSS) et 0,3% seulement des Américains (140 000 morts) ? Même illusion d'optique s'agissant des accords de Yalta (février 1945) et du prétendu " partage du monde " qui en a résulté. Sait-on que ce n'est pas Roosevelt – trop rapidement taxé de complaisance avec Staline – qui a entériné les visées territoriales soviétiques sur l'Europe centrale, mais le très anticommuniste Churchill, cinq mois plus tôt à Moscou, pour préserver la sphère d'influence britannique sur la Grèce et la Méditerranée orientale ? Après tant d'ouvrages écrits sur la Seconde Guerre mondiale, raconter l'histoire de son achèvement européen était nécessaire pour tordre le cou à beaucoup d'idées reçues. C'est l'objet de ce livre dont l'originalité repose sur les angles morts qu'il a choisi d'éclairer, et la force au rare talent d'écriture de son auteur.L'auteur Eric Branca est notre invité en studioDistribué par Audiomeans.

Hitlers Selbstmord und die Kapitulation der Wehrmacht am 8.Mai 1945 bedeuteten nicht das Ende des Deutschen Reiches. In der Marineschule Mürwik bei Flensburg agierte noch fast drei Wochen eine Reichsregierung unter Großadmiral Dönitz, den Hitler zu seinem Nachfolger ernannt hatte: Ein bizarrer Spuk mit Kabinettssitzungen, Minister-Denkschriften - und einem Staatsbegräbnis. Auch als die britische Armee das Treiben mit Festnahmen beendete, blieb Dönitz überzeugt, rechtmäßig im Amt zu sein. Von Rainer Volk

Throughout the war on the Eastern Front, there were two consistent trends. The Red Army battled to learn how to fight and win, while involved in a struggle for its very survival. But by 1944 it had a leadership that was able to wield it with lethal effect and with far more effective equipment than before. By contrast, the Wehrmacht had commenced a slow process of decline after the invasion of the Soviet Union. Hitler became increasingly unwilling to delegate decision-making to commanders in the field, which had been crucial to earlier success. The long years of fighting had also taken a heavy toll. Thousands of irreplaceable junior officers and NCOs were dead, wounded or prisoners.Today’s guest is Prit Buttar, author of “Bagration 1944: The Great Soviet Offensive.” We look at these trends, which culminated in the huge battles of Bagration. In 1944, the Red Army finally put together a campaign that utterly destroyed the German Army Group Centre. The Wehrmacht suffered the loss of over 300,000 men killed, wounded or taken prisoner and the Red Army rolled forward across Belarus to the outskirts of Warsaw. The end of the war was still many months away, and the Germans managed to reconstruct their line on the Eastern Front, but final victory for the Soviet Union was now only a matter of time as a direct consequence of Bagration.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Music was an integral part of statecraft and identity formation in the Third Reich. Structured thematically and semiotically around the Wagnerian tetralogy of the Ring cycle, Hitler's Twilight of the Gods: Music and the Orchestration of War and Genocide in Europe (U Toronto Press, 2025) provides a sonic read of the Second World War and the Holocaust. Alexandra Birch sheds light on the specific type of music promoted under Nazism, linked to larger Teutonic mythologies and histories espoused in rhetoric and personal styling. The book explores the musical fixation of the command as it was extended to the ordinary troops of the Wehrmacht and SS in instances of musical sadism and destruction during the Holocaust. It reveals how, in constructing what was "German," this process also intentionally fashioned a subaltern other with an assigned set of music and aesthetics. The book draws on analysis of testimony and perpetrator documents to reveal the execution of this binary identity and the inclusion of music even in extreme genocidal conditions. From drinking games in the interwar period, to musical sadism in the Holocaust, to the final delusions of the command in collapse, Hitler's Twilight of the Gods illuminates how music was a component of camaraderie, identity, masculinity, and warfare.

Claus von Stauffenberg est l'héritier d'une famille allemande aristocratique. En 1943, alors qu'il sert en Afrique du Nord, une opération dangereuse lui coute son bras droit, deux doigts de la main gauche et l'un de ses yeux. Il est convaincu que s'il a eu la vie sauve, c'est pour débarrasser l'Allemagne d'Hitler. Intégré comme chef d'État-major, il participe régulièrement à des réunions militaires en sa présence. Le 20 juillet 1944, il passe à l'action et dépose une mallette chargée d'explosifs au pied du Führer, avant de s'éclipser. Convaincu qu'il vient de tuer Hitler, il rejoint l'aéroport et s'envole pour Berlin afin de lancer l'opération Walkyrie. Seulement, Hitler a survécu. Alors que la nouvelle se répand, l'armée se retourne contre les officiers conjurés. Jugé en urgence, Von Stauffenberg est fusillé avec ses complices. Le 20 juillet 1944, une poignée d'officiers allemands rebelles a bien failli tuer Hitler. Au sein même de la Wehrmacht, les membres de l'opération Walkyrie sentent que le Führer mène le pays à sa perte. Dans un récit inédit, Virginie Girod vous plonge au cœur de l'histoire de ce complot contre le régime nazi. Distribué par Audiomeans.

By April 1945, Soviet forces stood at the gates of Berlin. From the summer of 1944, Hitler's armies had suffered a series of cataclysmic defeats that had left them shattered and desperately trying to hold on in front of the capital of the Third Reich. But how the Soviets' been able to bring the once mighty German Army to the brink of total defeat, and did the Wehrmacht have one last throw of the dice to save the Nazi regime?In this episode, Dan is joined by Professor Evan Maudsley, author of Thunder in the East: The Nazi-Soviet War 1941-1945 and former Professor of International History at the University of Glasgow. Evan helps Dan explore the stark differences in the narrative of World War II's final months across Western and Eastern Europe. They also discuss the key events from Operation Bagration in June 1944 to the Soviets' advance on Berlin in 1945 and how these tie in with the advance of the Western Allies. Also, could Stalin's strategic decisions have brought the war to an end sooner, and what did Hitler's last offensive in Hungary reveal about the dictator's priorities?Produced and edited by Dougal Patmore.Sign up to History Hit for hundreds of hours of original documentaries, with a new release every week and ad-free podcasts.
