Featuring an interview with Lieutenant Colonel Derek Plews.

Hello and welcome to the second episode of the Helion Military History Podcast, hosted by Dr Christopher Brice. This is a new fortnightly podcast that delves into the world of military history and specifically the books of Helion & Co. 

In this episode Chris talks with Lieutenant Colonel Derek Plews about his book Shamrocks Among the Poppies: Musa Qa'leh 2006 - A Bloody Siege and the Failures Behind it.  They discuss the book, the siege itself, the comparisons to the defence of Rorke's Drift, the aftermath, and particularly the effects on the soldiers post conflict.
