This week at TimeGhost our team of interns have switched departments. The two departments are writing and research, and publishing and community management. With this change our community management interns have also started running premiers and replying to comments, so you might notice that each premier the WW2 Channel has a slightly different character and tone. Nothing huge, but just some behind the scenes information we thought you might find interesting. 

Enjoy the show, and thank you all!

177- Food for Leningrad, Breaking the Siege! - WW2 - January 15th, 1943

Soviet attacks are launched this week to destroy the Hungarians, all while the German desperation at Stalingrad and Velikie Luki continues, but in the far north the Soviets have broken through the siege of Leningrad after 16 months. And the Casablanca Conference begins, a meeting to guide the war’s future progress.

Yet another great segment. Like the attention you are giving the issues concerning British and American differences is strategy from the military point of view. Not something covered in this detail by a lot of historians. BTW thanks for giving the secretaries the afternoon off. Lot less distracting. Not that they are not attractive, but I guess that is actually the point.

Just one more innovation, change or whatever to expand the talent within the Time Ghost Army. You guys seem on top of everything and still have time and effort to inform us of what you call little tidbits of what goes on behind the the camera's. Oh yes, the new studio works for me. I was but 5 to 10 years old during WWII so re learning the facts as you present them opens up a whole new understanding of the wide spread horror of WWII. We had little problems living in Los Angeles, CA at the time, or at least I thought so. We had fun after the war visiting Army Surplus Stores and seeing the actual items used in the war. Keep up the good work

Why were some Soviet armies referred to as "shock" armies?

Soviet Shock Armies were different from regular armies in the Soviet military as they were specifically organized and tasked with attacking parts of the front that were identified as being heavily defended. What made them different was that they had additional formations of tank, artillery, engineer and cavalry units, more than a regular army formation would normally have on hand.

I've read stories about the siege of Leningrad- at one point starvation was so rampant that citizens resorted to cannibalism. One survivor told the story that his mother wouldn't let him out of their apartment without her as unaccompanied children were going missing.

Excellent video from the team as always. It's pretty interesting to see the differences in American and British points of view of the future direction of the war of Europe.

Less distracting without the people behind Indy. Both the Brits and the Americans are right. Marshall would have the best idea IF the American army was mobilized and trained... which it isn't. The fighting around the Med will provide the needed training for both armies, but especially for the Americans. Some things just take time.

Indy looks so alone on a huge set. Excellent episode. Eisenhower seems so unprepared but he learned, didn't he.

Who does the thumbnails for the videos? They're very good.

An extremely intelligent episode detailing the problems and problem solving involved in this titanic conflict.

There is a great story from 99% invisible about the seed storage vault in Leningrad and peoples heroic struggle to keep it functioning. https://99percentinvisible.org/episode/the-vault/

Thanks for sharing, I have seen the Spitsbergen/Svalbard one it mentions but never realized there was a predecessor in Leningrad. (Both great places to visit :-).

Just raised my Patreon. Sorry to have been such a tepid ally. I'll send along some Jeeps and Spam ASAP.

Churchill was no strategist and it was a very good thing for Europe that people like George C. Marshall and FDR would have none of his batshittery.
