Why We Fight ~ 1944

Planning for Operation Husky & Joint Coalition Warfare


Listen Later

In this episode, Dr. Greg Hospodor, US Army TRADOC Chief of Military History Education and Curriculum, and Dr. Lee Windsor, Fredrik Eaton Chair in Canadian Army Studies at the University of New Brunswick and co-Director of The Gregg Centre for the Study of War and Society, join me to talk about the planning and prep for Operation Husky and part of the evolution in Joint Coalition Warfare that the Allies would have to undergo in order to make Normandy a success. But a year before Operation Overlord, the Allies had to succeed in Sicily.

This is one of about 30 episodes that help tell the story of the Sicily Campaign in 1943.
