S7 E05 - Sean Scullion on the Spanish in World War 2
We are joined this week by Military Historian and Secretary of the Royal Engineers Historical Society, Sean Scullion. Sean wants to rage that not all of Spain was neutral in World War 2.
We talk about how the Republicans fled to France and then started to continue the fight. How many joined the Maquis and organised resistance and how more came to be part of the British Army to continue the fight.
