The Explorers' Club Special: May-June 1915

Operation AXIOM: The World War
May 1915 saw more poison gas on the Western Front, stalemate at Gallipoli, & the infamous sinking of the ocean liner Lusitania by a German submarine.

Commentary: "The Explorers' Club" was in a bad way in the early summer of 2015, which is why we here present episodes out of numerical order & published from May-July 2015 cover April-June 1915. There won't be an "Operation AXIOM: The World War" post in June, but watch this space for the return in July.
