    Dec 8 2025
    In this week’s episode we continue our look into the vital role of Snipers on the Western Front. From informal and disorganised beginnings, we explore the emergence of the ‘art’ of sniping and how by 1918 they became one of the most feared and efficient weapons on the battlefield.

  • Episode 105: The Rise of the Snipers in WW1: The War Within a War
    Dec 1 2025
    In this week’s episode we begin a multi-part journey into the secretive and highly dangerous world of sniping in the Great War. From its ad-hoc early employment, to the development of dedicated sniper schools and tactical advances on the battlefield, we explore a method of fighting, which to many came to symbolise the deadly nature of trench warfare.

    Nov 24 2025

  • Episode 103: African Americans in WWI
    Nov 17 2025
    Today we’re looking at African Americans at war in 1917-18 - nearly 400,000 thousand men in uniform, most assigned to hard, essential labor, a smaller number fighting in segregated units that navigated American racial policy and coalition warfare at the same time. We’ll trace that story from recruitment and training through service with both the US Army and the French, and we’ll ask what their experience tells us about military effectiveness, citizenship and memory.
