Amphibious Operations
The Mariner's Mirror Podcast - Podcast autorstwa The Society for Nautical Research and the Lloyds Register Foundation - Poniedziałki
This week Dr Sam Willis speaks with Timothy Heck, the Deputy Directing Editor at the Modern War Institute at the United States Military Academy in West Point. They discuss the changing nature of amphibious operations in history and its relevance to the present day. What can the US Marine Corps today learn from amphibious operations in the past? Like DDay in WW2 or Gallipoli in WW1? How are other lesser-known operations relevant and important? From a night attack on the shores of Tuscany in 1555 to a Turkish amphibious assault in response to a coup in Cyprus in 1974? How do amphibious operations relate to key turning points in history? Why does the history of maritime amphibious operations matter? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
