This week at TimeGhost has been huge. We finished filming our longest weekly World War Two script to date, enacted some major studio upgrades, and produced all new trailers for our channels. As if to taunt us, or perhaps just give us a true challenge, our Dropbox stopped syncing throughout last week and threw us way off balance, so please forgive us for a slightly amended publishing schedule this week. We'd also like to give a huge welcome to our new TimeGhost Army recruits who signed up after the new trailers premiered yesterday!

All of these exciting changes are only possible because of all of you. Without the TimeGhost Army, there would be no channel. Your continued support allows us to create groundbreaking educational documentaries which reach a wide audience of people, many of whom are young and increasingly unaware of World War Two and its atrocities. Now more than ever, it is important humanity learn the lessons of the past so that our mistakes do not be repeated. We work hard to create an independent and ambitious documentary series that achieves just that.

As we enter 1943 and 2022, this war and our project becomes ever more titanic.

To be able to reach more people, and do this history justice, please increase your pledge to a tier higher than where you are now. If everyone reading this did so, we would have the capacity to double our full time staff.

Thank you for all you do. And now, Operation Torch.

168 - Axis and Allies Both Invade France - WW2 - November 13, 1942

Operation Torch goes off this week, the Allied invasion of French Northwest Africa, but this prompts the Germans to invade European France. This is the Allies first combined major offensive in the Western Hemisphere. The Germans launch another offensive of their own this week, though- Operation Hubertus in Stalingrad. And in the South Pacific, a major naval battle begins off Guadalcanal.
