About this listen

 My goal is to tell stories that you won't usually find in history books. My passion is military history, and I've been studying for nearly sixty years. I tell stories about people caught up in war; the men and women at the sharp end of the spear. My podcasts support my work and provide an avenue to present more content about America's wars in the mid- to late-20th century.Copyright 2023 Mark Flowers Political Science Politics & Government Social Sciences World
