Storm of War | A Memorial Day Special

Storm of War | A Memorial Day Special

"We shall not fail now. Let us move forward steadfastly together into the storm and through the storm."

- Winston Churchill, February 1942

This Memorial Day, we're republishing our favorite episode where we brought together both parts of our original Storm of War series into one complete telling of the Second World War, with speeches from Churchill, Eisenhower, and others who led through it.

From Versailles to Hitler's rise, to the fall of France, to the Battle of Britain. We show you Moscow's frozen gates all the way to Stalingrad. Then, from Normandy to the bunker in Berlin.

Here is the full story, on the day we set aside to remember those who didn't return.

We honor them by remembering what they faced, what they won, and what it cost.

From all of us at 15-Minute History, have a very happy Memorial Day.
