My guest today is Scott Bury, and we're going to tell the remarkable story of his relative, Maurice Bury — a Canadian citizen who found himself caught in Eastern Europe when war broke out. Drafted into the Red Army in 1941, he fought against the German invasion, survived a brutal POW camp, escaped, joined the resistance in Nazi-occupied Ukraine, and was later forced back into the Soviet army for the final push into Germany. It's a story that takes us through some of the most complex and brutal parts of the Eastern Front. Scott has explored Maurice's experiences in three books: Army of Worn Soles , Under the Nazi Heel , and Walking Out of War . He's also the host of the podcast B eyond Barbarossa , which looks at the history of the Eastern Front in the Second World War. patreon.com/ww2podcast","meta_description":"How does a Canadian end up fighting in the Soviet Red Army during the Second World War?
