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.

EP30 - NCDU & Gap Assault Teams on D-Day w/Dev Ramsamy
Two of the most under-reported units to take part in the D-Day assaults on Omaha and Utah Beaches were the Navy Combat Demolition Units and the Gap Assault Teams. Join Dev Ramsamy and I as we discuss the weapons & equipment, composition & performance of, and, most importantly, the men that comprised these units. While the infantry units get the lion's share of the attention and glory (with good reason), success on D-Day would have been much more difficult to attain without the amazing performance of these specialized units. We hope you'll enjoy this show as much as we did!
