How the Most Fearless Unit of the US Army Fought in Vietnam
<p>During the Vietnam War, the Americans faced fierce resistance, which neither the napalm-burning tactics nor the use of chemical weapons like Agent Orange helped to break. The Viet Cong army skillfully waged guerrilla warfare, taking full advantage of the familiar terrain. One of these advantages was the extensive network of underground tunnels, allowing the Vietnamese to hide and attack the enemy unexpectedly. </p> <p>To solve this problem, a special unit called the Tunnel Rats was formed. In the new episode of ‘How It Was,’ we will tell you what tasks the underground fighters performed, what kind of dangers awaited them in the darkness of the stuffy Vietnamese tunnels, and why the bayonet knife was their favorite weapon.</p> <p>Listen in Ukrainian: <a href="https://anchor.fm/waspodcastukr">https://anchor.fm/waspodcastukr</a></p> <p>Listen in Russian: <a href="https://anchor.fm/waspodcastrus">https://anchor.fm/waspodcastrus</a></p> <p>Watch on youtube: <a href="https://linktr.ee/WASMedia?fbclid=IwAR3ljp5O8gnSRxuvdJkL-McY7Ap86heVxo5FpoC47la4A950lP-nqnV-ATc">https://linktr.ee/WASMedia</a></p>

Beauty Errors: Radium in Cosmetology and Medicine
<p>Imagine walking into a store and buying radium whitening toothpaste, radioactive anti-aging creams, and radium condoms. The pharmacy offers you radium-based medicines that treat everything from hypertension and diabetes to impotence and depression. At home, you drink radioactive water and go on vacation to resorts with radon baths. No, this is not a nightmare or a horror movie script: less than a hundred years ago, people willingly did all this of their own free will. </p> <p>In the new episode of ‘How It Was,’ we will tell you about the fortunately short era of the use of radium in the manufacture of medicines, cosmetics, and other products. You will learn what diseases they tried to treat with radium, why counterfeit medicines are sometimes more helpful than real ones, who the radium girls were, and what will happen if you take three bottles of a radioactive drug a day.</p> <p>Listen in Ukrainian: <a href="https://anchor.fm/waspodcastukr">https://anchor.fm/waspodcastukr</a></p> <p>Listen in Russian: <a href="https://anchor.fm/waspodcastrus">https://anchor.fm/waspodcastrus</a></p> <p>Watch on youtube: <a href="https://linktr.ee/WASMedia?fbclid=IwAR3ljp5O8gnSRxuvdJkL-McY7Ap86heVxo5FpoC47la4A950lP-nqnV-ATc">https://linktr.ee/WASMedia</a></p>
