Heritage Heroes: Rabbi Rob's Tanks and War Stories
WW2 Pod: We Have Ways of Making You Talk - Un pódcast de Goalhanger Podcasts
Categorías:
In the next installment of our Heritage Heroes series James joins former naval corpsman Rabbi Rob Thomas in Ohio to discuss his remarkably diverse collection of tanks and heavy armour - one of the most extensive in the US! They delve into the impact of the Second World War upon Rob's own family history, the importance of educating the public about military weaponry, and debunk myths about the war. Rob’s connection to the war is a personal one; his wife’s grandfather, as a native Yiddish speaker, acted as translator at some of the first liberated concentration camps in Germany, which is why Rob believes in the continuing value of education about the conflict. Hear how his collection started with a couple of machine guns and a jeep on which to mount them, before escalating to Shermans and a warehouse.
