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.

EP29 - Robert Capa and His D-Day Photos: Separating Myth from Reality, w/Charles Herrick
We've all seen the Capa D-Day photos. They appear like locusts every time there's an anniversary of that momentous day. The capture and hold our attention because of what we think they represent. But did you ever wonder about the circumstances in which they were taken? I mean the actual circumstances, not the ones we self-generate. Join Chuck Herrick and I was we deep dive the mythology behind Robert Capa and his D-Day photos and attempt to unravel the myth from the reality.
