David Stirling - The Phoney Major of the SAS in WW2 with Gavin Mortimer
Aspects of History - Un pódcast de Oliver Webb-Carter
On this week's show, my guest is Gavin Mortimer, author of The Phoney Major, a revision on the revision which exposes Stirling not as the founder of the SAS, but instead as a fraud, a bungling special forces soldier and a narcissistic man who excelled at creating the image that is maintained today. Instead his brother founded the SAS, and Paddy Mayne was the true leader.
