Echoes of War (Formerly The Pacific War Channel Podcast)
Craig and Gaurav discuss some of the underrated moments of WW2.
Moments like the D-Day Landings at Normandy tend to take the limelight away from other events. Such was the case when it came to two operations that were linked to Operation Overlord.
The first underrated operation Craig and Gaurav talk about is Operation Shingles, the amphibious assault of Anzio during the Italian Campaign. It was a poorly planned and faulty operation designed to defeat the Gustav line, but did end up seeing the capture of Rome.
The second underrated operation Craig and Gaurav talk about is Operation Dragoon, the landings in Southern France. The operation was supposed to be performed simultaneously with D-Day, but ended up being delayed until August.
Lastly Craig and Gaurav talk about logistics during WW2, specifically in regards to the North African Campaign. The battle against the desert fox was one of the greatest examples of how logistics win wars.
