Could You Survive as a Redcoat during the American Revolutionary War?

Step back 250 years as a British Redcoat Soldier defending the American colonies during the War of Independence, and you were likely to face some of the most horrific and violent conditions seen just about anywhere around the world. What might have first seemed an exhilarating and patriotic endeavour would soon turn into a gruelling and gory series of events, through which your loyalty to the crown would be seriously tested… Rather than a political and social movement devised by the great founding fathers and resulting in the smooth birth of a nation, the American Revolution truly consisted of a hard, bloody and destructive war. A civil conflict that impacted the lives of so many, and would take the lives of thousands of soldiers who fought in it. But look at the paintings from the period, the history books, broadway musicals and Hollywood depictions of this war, and you’d believe it to have been a chess match won by plucky patriots against out-of-touch, aristocratic generals. Beneath of all this was the reality, an arduous series of skirmishes, sieges and pitched

Get an exclusive look at Hitler's bunker, Alfred Jodl's bunker, Hermann Goering's bunker, and Wilhelm Keitel's bunker. Explore the famous location of the Hitler assassination attempt, 'Operation Valkyrie', which almost ended the Third Reich. Luke Tomes joins WW2 expert and Third Reich expert Jonny Whitlam to explore the remains of the Wolf's Lair complex today, imagining how decisions of such immense consequence were made in this remote, heavily fortified forest, and how close history came to taking a very different turn. During World War Two, Hitler spent most of his time in his secret bunker, making it the perfect location for a group of German officers to attempt to assassinate him. The failed Hitler assassination attempt happened on July 20 1944, in the plot known as 'Operation Valkyrie'. A bomb was detonated during a military briefing inside the complex, but Hitler survived death with only minor injuries, allowing Hitler's Nazi regime to carry on.
