In July 1944, an American Army dentist was treating wounded soldiers on Saipan when thousands of Japanese troops launched a desperate assault.

As enemy soldiers entered his medical tent, he fought them off and ordered his patients to escape. Then he took over a machine gun and made his final stand.

When American troops recovered his body, they reported finding 98 dead Japanese soldiers in front of his position.

This is the story of Captain Ben L. Salomon..🧵1/6

In 1942, an American Navy officer watched Japanese guards beat a fellow prisoner until he was nearly dead.

More than 2,000 Allied prisoners were watching. Nobody could stop it.

Then one American stepped forward.

He offered to take the rest of the punishment himself.

The Japanese guards were so stunned that they stopped.

This is the story of Richard N. Antrim, the man who earned the Medal of Honor inside a Japanese prison camp..🧵1/6

🚨 New episode 🚨 - The doomed British Walcheren expedition! Launched in 1809, the expedition aimed to destroy the French fleet at Antwerp, and weaken Napoleon's grip on Europe. Instead, the campaign became a military disaster marked by delays, poor coordination, difficult terrain, and the devastating spread of "Walcheren Fever." Special guest Jacqueline Reiter will discuss how Britain assembled a massive expeditionary force and what went wrong.
