#268: Overshadowed with Capt Isaac Lamberth

Hey, Scuttlebutt listeners. Thank you for joining us and for your continued support. This week, we welcome Capt Isaac Lamberth to the scuttlebutt. Isaac is an active-duty, prior-enlisted public affairs and strategic communications officer. But most notably, he is the author of the book Overshadowed: US Marines in World War II: Europe, the Caribbean, and South America, a visual history of some of the forgotten parts of Marine Corps history of World War II. For those who have been keeping track, we recently had the authors of Ortiz’s War on the show to talk about their book chronicling the life of Peter Ortiz, one of the most prolific Marines operating in Europe during WWII. Presented in a coffee-table book style, Overshadowed is a gorgeous book showcasing how Marines worked, lived, trained, and fought in Europe, the Caribbean, South America, and the Atlantic. Isaac talks to us about the genesis of the book, how he was able to compile the images and stories, and why he thinks it’s important to shed light on this unique aspect of Marine Corps history.  

Enjoy!
