  • Summary

  • [Contains explicit content] As country after country in Europe fell to Germany, the U.S. was unprepared, underequipped, and undermanned. With the first peace-time draft, the influx of new recruits found themselves training with broomsticks instead of rifles. This episode explores the reaction to mandatory service in America and conscientious objectors who paid a steep price for their convictions.
