| 0:10.0 | The same thing happened in Algeria, in Africa. |
| 0:14.0 | They didn't have anything but a rank. |
| 0:17.0 | The French had all these highly mechanized instruments of warfare, but they put some guerrilla action on. |
| 0:28.4 | Hello, guerrilla history listeners, this is co-host Henry. Today for you, we have a crossover |
| 0:33.7 | episode that we did alongside our friend, Sina Rahmani, of the East is a podcast. |
| 0:39.0 | This episode will also be appearing on the East as a podcast, on the podcast feed, as well as on |
