Manage episode 465194834 series 3368649
THIS WEEK! In the first 2 part series of 2025, we take a look at the Indian Army in the Second World War. In part 1 we will take a look at the Indian Armys time in Europe where they were present at Dunkirk, The North African Campaign, and in Britain training for being deployed out in the war. Why has this part of our World War 2 history been forgotten, and neglected? Why until now has there not been much written about the Indian or Colonial armies that were essential to winning the war for the Allies? Find out this week on "Well That Aged Well", with "Erlend Hedegart".
