Über diesen Titel

This Week in U.S. Military History: February 24th, 2026–March 2nd, 2026 brings you from George Rogers Clark slogging through flooded frontier country at Vincennes to high-altitude firefights in Afghanistan’s Shah-i-Kot Valley. Along the way, you hear how a peacetime gunnery demonstration aboard USS Princeton turned to tragedy, how panic and flak filled the night sky over Los Angeles in early 1942, and how Allied aircrews in the Southwest Pacific learned to tear apart Japanese convoys in the Battle of the Bismarck Sea.

Across the hour, the story moves through Castle Bravo’s enormous nuclear blast at Bikini Atoll, the long grind of Operation Rolling Thunder over North Vietnam, the sweeping “left hook” of Desert Storm’s ground offensive, and the hard lessons of Operation Anaconda. You hear how each moment fits into its wider war, and how themes of adaptation, miscalculation, and endurance echo across generations. This Week in U.S. Military History is the Tuesday feature of Dispatch: U.S. Military History Magazine, developed by Trackpads.com.
