Colonel Colin Mitchell, dubbed by the press “Mad Mitch”. • • Similar videos from my channel: • The Suez Crisis 1956 • • What Was The Suez Crisis in 1956? • • Chapters • 0:00 Intro • 0:45 Aden Colony • 2:40 Arab Nationalism • 4:00 Radfan Campaign • 4:47 Insurgency • 6:38 Aden Emergency • 7:24 Battle of Crater 1967 • 9:08 Lt.

Not just because they are interesting but because, good or bad, they have shaped the world we live in today. • History should not be stuffy or a long list of dates or kings queens. • So rather than lectures or Youtube animations, I tell stories that bring the past to life. • My aim is to be chat as if I were having a coffee or meal with you. Jean in Maryland, USA recently wrote: Chris, is the history teacher I wish I had at school! • Just for the record, I do have a history degree in Medieval Modern history from the University of Birmingham. • Disclaimer: All opinions and comments expressed in the 'Comments' section do not reflect the opinions of Chris Green Communication Ltd t/a The History Chap.
