This is the first of a series of specials that we recorded there. More will follow in May and June as the war in France proceeds. On Saturday we will come out with a double length episode about the German breakthrough in the West &mdash; we are exceedingly proud of that episode and we hope that you will enjoy it as much as we do. This video gives you some great background to that event. For us it was a revelation to visit the sites and talk to the experts you will meet in the video. Mark Halter of the amazingly well preserved Schoenenburg Fortress, Richard Tucker who gives fantastic tours around the Sedan area, and Roland M\u00fcller who has worked for decades to keep alive the memory of the men who served on the front. If you happen to be in the Alsace or Ardennes area, you need to go visit these places. Most of the Maginot museums are private initiatives that depend on their visitor income and financial contributions to continue existing &mdash; links are in the description.\ufeff <\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>World War Two Published on 16 May 2019 The Maginot Line was not the failure many think &mdash; in fact it was quite a remarkable feat &mdash; find out more in this video.
