Samuel shares the stories of the young men who climbed into the cockpits of the P-38 to fight for freedom, and of those who created, tested, and deployed these fearsome machines.

"Considerate se questa è una donna | Senza capelli e senza nome | Senza piú forza di ricordare | Vuoti gli occhi e freddo il grembo | Come una rana d'inverno". È con questa immagine scarnificata che Primo Levi, nell'incipit di Se questo è un uomo, indica la necessità di riflettere sulla condizione delle donne prigioniere ad Auschwitz. Eppure per molti anni la storiografia e la testimonianza hanno appiattito l'esperienza femminile in una declinazione universale, in un neutro linguistico che, dimenticando i corpi sessuati, ha reso opaca l'intenzionalità stessa dello sterminio.

He didn’t lead the revolution. He survived it. Joseph Stalin rose from a shoeless Georgian childhood to become the most feared dictator of the 20th century. Not by inspiring crowds, but by outliving, outkilling, and outmaneuvering everyone in his path. He purged his rivals, starved his people, rewrote the past, and built a police state so vast it swallowed truth itself. He didn’t just kill millions. He turned fear into policy, propaganda into scripture, and loyalty into silence. This audiobook is not a tribute.

Not long after the Normandy Invasion, the Thirty-Sixth invaded Southern France; then as the German Army retreated toward Germany, the Thirty-Sixth Division raced around it and closed the trap.
