But why? ✨ subscribe ✨ & join the patreon for more   / tomthornton   It's a tiny island in the north sea that's still home to about 1000 Germans today, but what's it like to live on Germany's most remote island?

And what role did Heligoland play during the wars? And what was Operation Big Bang? Why did the British return to launch the biggest explosion of all time on Heligoland, one of their former territories?
