WW2's 'Night Witches'

On this week’s episode of History Gap, Lucy and Jorja consider the role of magic and superstition during World War 2 as Lucy tells the story of Russia’s ‘Night Witches’ - an all-female air division who were feared greatly by the Nazi’s and Hitler himself. The girls also discuss the sexism women experience during and after the war effort and theorise how these brave women must have felt.
