A proposito di questo titolo

Beyond the Call: Colonel John Riley Kane at Ploesti, 1943 follows a United States Army air group commander through one of World War II’s most dangerous low-level bombing raids, as he leads damaged B-24 Liberators into the firestorm over Romania’s vital oil refineries. Listeners hear the story of Kane’s early life in Texas, the long flight from North Africa, the chaos of Operation Tidal Wave, and the split-second decisions that defined his command under relentless antiaircraft fire. The episode also reflects on the strategic importance of Ploesti, the cost paid by his crews, and the character traits that shaped his courage and responsibility. Beyond the Call is the Monday feature of Dispatch: U.S. Military History Magazine, and the podcast is developed by Trackpads dot com.
