Episodio 45 - Coolant: l'arrivo di Macpherson - a podcast by raccontidalnascondiglio

In questo episodio seguiremo l'avvicendamento alla guida della missione Coolant tra il maggiore Vincent e il maggiore Macpherson. Questi, reduce da una lunga prigionia in mano nemica, e poi una missione in Francia, fu designato in quanto ufficiale esperto e capace. Tuttavia, le sfide che dovette affrontare furono notevoli: non solo la presenza massiccia di forze nemiche, rinforozate anche da truppe cosacche e croate, ma anche le crescenti tensioni tra sloveni e italiani, che infine esplosero a metà inverno. 

In this episode, we will follow the arrival of Major Macpherson (who took over the Coolant mission from Vincent) in Italy. Macpherson had been held captive by the enemy for a long period and was fresh from a mission to France. For these reasons, he was chosen as a capable and expert officer to lead the mission. However, he had to face several challenges: not only the enemy, reinforced in this area by Cossack and Croatian troops but also the rising tensions between Italians and Slovene partisans, that finally exploded in mid-winter.
