The "We're Not Lost, Private" Podcast
Whether you’re interested in learning more about the real Band of Brothers, or exploring the people, places and things associated with a wide range of World War II battles, the “We’re Not Lost, Private” Podcast is the pod for you. We focus on telling the stories of the members of the Greatest Generation who served at the bayonet point and were involved in the battles that helped define the 20th Century and beyond. We’ll talk with historians, authors, battlefield guides and family members of the men and women that were there during one of the most climactic events in human history. Learn what it was like for these service members to take part in a combat parachute assault, an amphibious assault on an enemy held beach, knocking out an enemy strong point, or countless other actions across the breath and width of World War II. The “We’re Not Lost, Private” Podcast puts you right next to them during that action.

EP24 - The Savage Fighting Around Holdy on D-Day Morning
D-Day morning...so many violent clashes between groups of US paratroopers and German defenders. Holdy was no different. Join me for a deep dive on the fighting in and around the small Norman hamlet. Possessing an artillery battery not unlike Brecourt, the fighting between elements of the 502nd and 506th Parachute Infantry and German troops manning the Holdy position on D-Day was brutal and bloody.
