A Special - Early Fortifications and an Island Obsession!
Manage episode 422944436 series 3553101
Following a number of questions around the fortification of the Channel Islands we were keen to talk about early fortifications.
In the show we deal with everything from the start to late 1941! Basically everything pre-Atlantic wall.
We talk a bit about early Kommandandt's, early fortifications and the obsession with holding the Channel Islands despite there being no strategic value.
