The Forgotten Spaniards Who Fought for Britain in WW2

Today we are talking about Spaniards - Spanish Republicans - the defeated side of the Civil War… men who get driven into exile and scattered across Europe.

Some end up in British uniform before the fall of France. Some join the Pioneer Corps and then quietly drift into far sharper corners of the war: commandos, SOE networks, North Africa, Italy, Normandy… even the long road to Berlin.

Yet again and again they prove themselves as soldiers.

Our guest today is Sean Scullion — a serving British soldier and a lifelong Spain specialist.

This is the story of the men who kept going - after Spain, after France, and after the world decided to forget them.

Sean’s book is called Churchill’s Spaniards and is available from Helion and company. Here is a link to buy - https://amzn.to/3MG2pkR
