Battleplan: The Complete Series
An 18-part series that explores the history of military tactics, from blitzkrieg to blockade, from raiding operations to strategic bombing and on to guerrilla warfare. It examines how the invention of aircraft changed the way wars are fought and how a smaller force can win over a larger one using the right tactics. Providing an in-depth history and analysis of the development of warfare, among the many examples used are the Battle of Normandy, the Battle of Britain, the Siege of Leningrad, Iwo Jima, the Tet Offensive, the Battle of Midway, the Iraq War and many more.
