Guadalcanal (Patreon)

This week, the Germans are driving through open country once again in the USSR, but something does not quite feel right, and even this enormous lunge forward falls far short of the dreamlike expectations of the Nazi German War Machine. The US is also on the move this week as their Marines make a landing on the Solomon Islands at Guadalcanal, though no one really knows how fierce and historic a campaign this could become.

154 - Guadalcanal - Allies Take the Initiative - WW2 - August 7, 1942

The Axis Forces are on the move on the Eastern Front and in the Caucasus, but this week the Allies begin an offensive of their own: this week come Allied landings and attacks on Guadalcanal and nearby islands, the first American offensive against the Japanese.

I am the only one who ends up with that Sound of Music Earwig song in my head like EVERY time Indy mentions operation Edelweiss ;-)

A lot of action and the Jews are gradually disappearing.

I've been waiting a long time for the Pacific Theater between Japan and America to start.

A question for Out of the Foxholes: For a while you've mentioned how the German High Command was under the impression that the Red Army was nearing the end of their strength. What was the Germans' reasoning? Was it based on some sort of intelligence or just ideology-driven wishful thinking?

Will there be a special on the Coastwatchers? Their efforts were vital to the success of the Guadalcanal campaign.

Random question. Will you guys be doing a “who did what” on Christopher Lee. I was just watching an interview with him and Peter Jackson. Apparently Peter went into all sorts of details on what sounds he wanted Christopher to make when he gets stabbed. To which Christopher replied “do you even know what sound a man makes when he’s stabbed in the back? Because I do” then apparently went on a little rant of some clandestine stuff from ww2.

Finally Bernard Montgomery is in action. I’ve always felt that Montgomery and Patton should have been used in tandem. Montgomery designs big ambitious plans like the Normandy invasion. Then when it is underway Patton’s capacity to improvise and adapt on the run makes them a duel threat. Also the battle of Milne bay and the Kokoda track are on the verge of seeing life. 2 woefully under recognised efforts of the war.

Their reasoning was heavily based on the amount of prisoners they had taken (in the millions) and casualties inflicted (also in the millions) then add to that the ideological narrative that the Russians are a lesser people and you end up with they’re almost beaten.

The narrative for the Marine Raiders' attack on Tulagi is accompanied by a graphic showing expansion of the bridgehead near Lunga Point on Guadalcanal. It's more than a little confusing.

Could he be compared to Gen. McClellan of the Union army an 'idea man' who was poor at execution?

Can you talk about the Spanish volunteers?

Hardly. Montgomery didn't turn all of his victories into defeats, nor did he undermine his country's war efforts. He led armies to victorious outcomes in three campaigns. He was hardly "poor at execution".
