In this episode we are cast back to early 1942, all that stood between the Axis and victory in North Africa was the tiny Mediterranean island of Malta. For 30 months, Axis aircraft had attempted to bomb the island into submission. Norm Christie examines the stories of the brave heroes who defended Malta, the Allied fighter pilots who tirelessly took to the air, and the sailors who endured countless attacks to bring food and supplies, all locked in the epic struggle to survive the siege of Malta. <47mn 22s>Language:EnglishNotes:Detailed holdings information: -
