independent military history enthusiast; podcasting since 2016
Selection · Edition 2026-10-15
Mike Cunha follows Sergeant Joseph Darnand from his celebrated trench raid on July 14, 1918 — which produced critical intelligence before Second Marne — through to his wartime collaboration with Vichy and execution as a traitor in 1945. A well-constructed character study that doubles as a window into French tactical intelligence-gathering on the Western Front.
