In Episode 3, we focus on the time before CENTCOM, specifically the period between World War II and the mid-1970s. During this time, the Middle East was a largely overlooked theater for American military strategy and, for the most part, no command focused on security and stability of the region.
This episode tells the story of the World War II Persian Gulf Command, an American military organization in the Persian Gulf region and focused on providing supplies, trucks, and weapons to the Soviets.
