About this episode
For the final episode in our 'Commanders' series, we've drawn on your suggestions to pay tribute to the commanders who didn’t make our main episodes, but left a lasting mark on the Second World War.
Joining us is Jonathan Bratten, a historian and serving Major in the Maine National Guard.
Produced by James Hickmann and edited by Dougal Patmore.
