The American History PodcastThe American History Podcast4.15 The Admiral, the President and the Prime MinisterSend us a textI'm very excited to release this episode to the world. Originally it was supposed to focus on the men who eventually were promoted to 5 star admiral during the war. However, as I started writing it changed and thus so did the focus. Instead I decided to focus on one of the men, Fleet Admiral King, someone the average American is probably not familiar with. So enjoy!Today's show is sponsored by Unidragon Wooden puzzles.
