Customer Reviews
WWII in the Pacific
I enjoyed this episode, but I have one issue. The historian stated that by the end of the war, Japanese troops were routinely fighting to the death. I think he meant to say the Japanese were fighting to the death throughout the war, which made the experience of fighting them so different from any other war. All of the major memoirs of WWII stated this horrifying fact.
Fantastic!
A good listen- I like that it covers topics not often discussed on msnbc or cnn
Senator from RI !!!
Really enjoyed first episode!! Will keep listening. Beowulf, you sound just like Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse...uncanny really!!
