Odin & AesopA ShauThe A Shau Valley is in the mountainous northwest corner of what used to be South Vietnam. It is right across the border from Laos. Because of its location, the A Shau formed a natural hub for the North Vietnamese Army to move their units and supplies into South Vietnam and threaten the more heavily populated coastal plains. The United States tried multiple times and multiple ways to disrupt what the North Vietnamese were doing. Some of the Vietnam War's heaviest combat ensued. Jay Phillips tells the story in "A Shau: Crucible of the Vietnam War"

Henry Redman, a staff reporter with the Wisconsin Examiner, joins our News Producer Faye Parks to explain what the bill would change – and why major online sportsbooks oppose it.

This was when the British Empire was close to its blazing zenith and unquestionably the ranking world power. Any war against the somewhat backward Boers on a remote border of the empire in southern Africa would surely be quick and decisive. It did not turn out that way. As Rudyard Kipling put it, the Boers gave the British “no end of a lesson.” Thomas Pakenham tells the story in “The Boer War.”

2023-06-2856 minOdin & AesopOperation CorporateArgentina seized the Falkland Islands on April 2nd, 1982. The British government deployed a naval task force on April 5th to take them back. As the force steadily converged from 8,000 miles away, the rest of the world wondered if the two countries would really fight over the remote and sparsely populated islands. They did. By the time it was over in June, 3,336 people had been killed or wounded; sixteen ships sunk; and 134 aircraft were lost. The Falklands campaign is considered by many as the first technologically modern war. In some ways it is a microcosm of what major fleet actions could...

The DMZ was supposed to be a temporary buffer zone thatwould keep previously hostile forces away from each other. When the plannedunification of North Vietnam and South Vietnam stalled out, the DMZ stayed onwith an air of permanence. It was four to six miles wide and ran about 47 milesfrom the coast to the border with Laos. Don’t believe the label though. The DMZwas anything but demilitarized. It’s here in the DMZ that 3rd B...

2022-07-111h 48Odin & AesopSamuraiImperial Japanese Navy pilots were an elite corps. They lead the world in developing naval aviation between the First and Second World Wars. Although their equipment was modern and tactics were cutting edge, their values and collective identity were based in something much older. They were the modern incarnation of Japan’s ancient warrior caste, the Samurai, and adhered to the warrior code of bushido. Saburo Sakai was one of them. He fought throughout the war, became a leading ace, and was one of the very few who survived to write his story.

It raced out of Kuwait in Abrams tanks and Bradley fighting vehicles across open terrain, fighting a battle for which they'd trained. Mechanized infantry combined with the tank sledgehammer brushed aside any resistance losing more vehicles to maintenance than enemy action. Things and the plan changed when the Second Brigade made it to Baghdad. Instead of encircling the city of seven million people and trying to clear it block by block with dismounted infantry, the decision was ma...

German submarines were pushing the British to their limits and they could ill afford to have the German battleship Tirpitz sortie into the Atlantic and join the fight. To stop this from happening the British determined the best way to neutralize the Tirpitz was to destroy the only dry dock on the Atlantic coast that was large enough to accommodate the battleship should it take damage fighting on the open ocean. The Great Ra...
2022-04-111h 58Odin & AesopWith The Old BreedThe Marine Corps grew to 485,000 Marines during the Second World War. This was twenty-five times larger than it was in 1939. This greatly expanded Corps attacked and captured Japanese held islands across the Central Pacific from 1942 until the war ended in 1945. Each island landing brought the United States closer to invading the Japanese home islands. One Marine that participated in the Pacific campaign was Eugene B. Sledge. He was a mortarman with Company K, 3rd Battalion, 5th Marines. “With the Old Breed” tells Sledge’s story of fighting through the battles of Peleliu and Okinawa.

They were advancing towards the 3rd Marine Division’s command post and major logistics hub at Dong Ha when they were engaged by the 2nd Battalion, 4th Marines.

2021-12-111h 53Odin & AesopNeptune's InfernoThe Battle of Guadalcanal took place from August 1942 until February 1943. Because Guadalcanal is an island, both the Japanese and the Americans relied on the sea to supply their forces and bring in reinforcements. James D. Hornfischer’s “Neptune’s Inferno” tells the story of the fight to control the seas around Guadalcanal. These sea battles cost roughly three times as many American lives as the fighting on the island and gave the American surface fleet a hard lesson in modern fleet-on-fleet action.

2021-07-1825 minOdin & AesopWar in the BoatsThe U.S. Navy started World War Two leaning towards the idea that its submarines were supposed to remain hidden and cautiously scout ahead of the surface fleet. With the surface fleet destroyed at Pearl Harbor, that idea got turned around. Instead a new generation of aggressive commanders rose up. They roamed the vast Pacific on independent war patrols that lasted months. By war’s end the Japanese merchant fleet had lost close to nine million tons of shipping and was only 23% its pre-war size. Over half of those losses came at the hands of U.S. submarines. U.S. subma...

The Marines' suspicions were confirmed when they reached the Chosin reservoir. They were surrounded by 60,000 Chinese soldiers in the freezing mountains.
