Story
Drie jonge vrouwen in het gewapende verzet tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog – Desnoods met wapens vertelt hun uitzonderlijke verhaal. Vrijwel iedereen kent verzetsicoon Hannie Schaft, maar niet veel mensen weten dat ze intensief samenwerkte met twee zussen: Truus en Freddie Oversteegen. Desnoods met wapens is het verhaal van deze drie vrouwen, die tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog de wapens opnamen tegen de nazi's – zeer uitzonderlijk voor vrouwen in die tijd. Ze waren piepjong: Hannie was negentien en de zussen waren zestien en veertien toen ze actief werden in het verzet.

Story
Das Leben von Reinhold Beckmanns Mutter Aenne war von Verlusten gezeichnet. Bereits mit fünf Jahren war sie Vollwaise. Vier Brüder hatte sie, alle im Krieg gefallen. Und doch war es ein gelungenes Leben. Anders als viele ihrer Generation hat sie über ihre Trauer und Ängste nie geschwiegen. Aennes Brüder und Eltern blieben immer gegenwärtig, in Gesprächen, Fotos, Gedenktagen und Erinnerungen. In diesem Hörbuch erzählt Reinhold Beckmann die Geschichte seiner Mutter und von Franz, Hans, Alfons und Willi, zwischen hartem Alltag auf dem Dorf, katholischer Tradition und beginnender Diktatur.

Dessen weitgehend erhalten gebliebene Feldpost und das umfangreiche Begleitmaterial liefern Ihnen einmalige Einblicke in den Kriegsdienst an der Ostfront im Zweiten Weltkrieg...

Von 1942 bis 1945 war er Kraftfahrer der Wehrmacht an der Ostfront. Dieses Buch erzählt seine Geschichte.

Story
Life for a World War II paratrooper was grave and perilous; John H. Canfield's experience was no different. However, this young man found himself in so many crazy—sometimes humorous—situations that he almost forgot about how dangerous it was. Filled with pranksters and superiors full of bravado and an unfortunate brush with racial bigotry with a fellow African American soldier, Canfield shares his many stories from basic training and jump school. But his best stories are from the war.

Story
Dickie Metcalfe was not your typical secret agent, but he was larger than life in more ways than one. Unlike many other agents who were part of the Double Cross System during the Second World War, he did not defect; nor was he blackmailed into becoming a spy. Instead, using his father's connection with Sir Vernon Kell, the first director of MI5, Metcalfe volunteered his services. Recently cashiered from his infantry regiment, he had an ulterior motive.

A month after her 24th birthday, Lt. Mary Elizabeth Balster collapses among the rubble of a shelled supply room. On the night of November 30, 1944, holed up in the Heinrich Himmler Barracks in Morhange, France, Lt. Balster's evac receives a typical patient load, but this time one of the admissions is a 19-year-old tanker she'd nursed back to health five months before in Normandy. The charge nurse on Surgical gently informs the lieutenant that the private is critical.

David Stirling is the name synonymous with the wartime SAS, but the real brains behind the operation was in fact Bill Stirling, David’s eldest brother. Bill was described in the SAS War Diary as a ‘man from the shadows’; it was an apt description for, unlike his attention seeking brother, Bill shunned the spotlight. Now for the first time the truth – and the triumph – of 2SAS is revealed.

Story
Born and raised in Mississippi, Peter K. Lutken, Jr. (1920–2014) joined the army in 1941 and was assigned to the Coast Artillery. Originally sent to India to guard airfields, he was reassigned to the British V Force, then the American OSS (Office of Strategic Services and precursor to the CIA) after he volunteered for reconnaissance missions behind Japanese lines. Skills he had learned as a boy in the backwoods and swamps around the Pearl River stood him in good stead, and by the end of the war, he attained the rank of major, commanding an entire battalion of ethnic Kachins and other local people of northern Burma (now called Myanmar).
