This week the war enters it's third deadly year. At its onset three years ago many had hopes that a peaceful resolution could be found with the Nazis, but today it is clear that was beyond naive. What once started as the Germans advancing a few dozen kilometres into Poland is now them advancing a few thousand kilometres into the Soviet Union, reaching and destroying Stalingrad. Few thought that when this conflict first broke out, ostensibly over a Polish sea corridor, that it would now be fought on the deserts of Egypt. Only one thing is clear now: many more innocent people will be murdered before this concludes.

It is also a nice time for us to reflect on how far this project has come. When we started the history was still strong, but the editing and production was nowhere near where we wanted it to be. We called on all of you to help us make a documentary which does justice to the gravity of the subject, and you have already beyond delivered. Our team of editors, graphic designers, researchers, and writers, is creating historiography that we're pretty damn proud of. All of that would be literally impossible without your help, and we were able to do it without once having to try sell you a razor kit of VPN deal in between coverage of the Second World War. This entire documentary is much better because of that, and thank you all so much for making it possible.

Below you can see an image that is slightly older than three years. On August 27th, 2018, Indy and Sparty shoot episode 1 of World War Two in Real Time.

Love you TimeGhost Army.

158 - The War is Three Years Old - WW2 - September 4, 1942

As the war turns three there is is no slacking in the fighting. Erwin Rommel launches another Axis attack in North Africa, but it is foiled in only days, though the Axis are advancing in the Caucasus as well as on Stalingrad, where the fight for the suburbs is now beginning. They're also advancing in the South Pacific, as the Japanese fight their way along the Kokoda Trail.
