    In this episode, Brazilian Army Colonel Giorgio Pizzani joins me to talk about the Brazilian Expeditionary Force from creation through 1944 -- a special formation of 25,000 volunteers from Brazil who travel to Italy to fight alongside the Allies.

There were also 67 nurses who volunteered along with the men to travel to the European Theater and care for the wounded. This is "Part I" as the story will continue in the 1945 series.

    In this episode, Lieutenant Colonel Christopher Evans joins me to talk about the Military Police at Normandy and in 1944, as well as the challenges of future force structure planning and compromises.

They help address the Commander's "people problems" and prevent issues from spiraling.
