From Stormtroopers to Blitzkrieg dives into how the German military transformed its thinking from the trench warfare of World War I to the fast, mechanized offensives of World War II. Hosted by Hope and Brian from Mil History Talk, the show blends sharp analysis, humor, and vivid storytelling to explore how ideas, not just machines, reshaped modern warfare. Each episode uncovers the evolution of tactics, leadership, and innovation—from stormtrooper infiltration to the rise of Blitzkrieg—and what these lessons reveal about the balance between doctrine, technology, and human ingenuity in war.
