Islands at War

A Special - Part 2 -Early Fortifications and an Island Obsession!

Listen

Description

Part two of our early fortifications special.   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 Luftwaffe activity, Battle of Britain, the repurposing of  Napoleonic fortifications and much more.

A few pictures and links to articles on the link  here.
