For Honour's Sake - The AJEX Podcast
For Honour's Sake is brought to you by AJEX The Jewish Military Association.
The history of the Jewish contribution to Britain's armed forces begins at the moment of Resettlement, stretches through the Restoration, Georgian and Victorian eras, into the 20th Century, and right up until the modern day. Well over a hundred thousand Jews, from a community that has never numbered more than 400,000 have fought in all conflicts, in all places, at all levels, and in all ways.
For Honour's Sake recounts these stories and speaks to those who served.
