1 hr - Episode 33: Prisoners of War in Asia
In today’s episode, we’ll pick up our theme of Prisoners of War - and this time we’ll focus on the Asia-Pacific theatre. As in Eastern Europe, similar harrowing themes defined the experience of men in enemy hands: a punishing climate, disregard for human life, forced labour, and even a ten-year-wait before seeing home.

57 min - Episode 32: Prisoners of War in East Europe
In today’s episode, we’re going behind the lines to consider the oft-overlooked fates of the millions of soldiers on the Eastern Front who fell into enemy hands and became prisoners of war. Millions were killed or died in camps from Germany to Siberia, and many did not make it home until the 1950s. This is their story.
