The World At War (World War II).
Military History Video. DVD.
Boxed set of 11 discs. 22 Hours and 37 Minutes.
Sir Jeremy Isaacs highly deserves the numerous awards for documentaries
he has earned: the Royal Television Society's Desmond Davis Award,
l'Ordre National du Mérit, an Emmy, and a knighthood from Queen
Elizabeth II. His epic The World at War remains unsurpassed as the
Definitive
visual history of World War II.
The Second World War was different from other wars in thousands of ways,
one of which was the unparalleled scope of visual documents kept by the
Axis and Allies of all their activities. As a result, this war is
understood as much through
 written
histories as it is through its powerful images. The Nazis were
particularly thorough in documenting even the most abhorrent of the
atrocities they were committing--in a surprising amount of color
footage. The World at War was one of the first television documentaries
that exploited these resources so completely, giving viewers an
unbelievable visual guide to the greatest event in the 20th century.
This is to say nothing of the excellent, comprehensible narrative. Some
highlights:
A New Germany 1933-39:
early German and Nazi documentation of Hitler's rise to power through
the impending attack on Poland
Whirlwind:
the early British losses in the blitz in
the skies over Britain and in North Africa
Stalingrad:
the turning point of the war and
Germany's first defeat.
Inside the Reich--Germany
1940-44: one of the most
fascinating documentaries that exists on life inside Nazi Germany, from
Lebensborn to the Hitler Youth
Morning:
prior to Saving Private Ryan, one of the
only unromanticized views of the Normandy invasion
Genocide:
this film is one of the most widely shown introductions to the Holocaust
Japan 1941-45:
although The World at War is decidedly
focused more on the European theater, this is an important look into
wartime Japan and its expansion--early 20th-century history that lead to
Japan's role in World War II is superficial.
The bomb:
another widely shown documentary of the
Manhattan Project, the Enola Gay, Hiroshima, and Nagasaki
Product Description:
This landmark incomparable remembrance of World War II includes rare
interviews with veterans & survivors amazing archive footage & chilling
narration by Sir Laurence Olivier.
26 original
episodes plus over 12 hours of bonus material (3 hours of new material)

Personal Journeys of World War II.
Military History Video.
DVD. Boxed set
of 6 discs. 8 Hours.
Disc 1: Personal Journeys of World War II, Part 1:
Volume 1: 1941-1942, The First
1000 Days - Newsman Mike
Wallace (Lt. US Navy) recalls how Hitler's brutal conquest of Europe
ultimately forged the American will to fight. Senator Daniel Inouye
(Capt. US Army) remembers his astonishment at the Japanese squadrons
flying over his family's Hawaiian home on their way to Pearl Harbor.
Senator Bob Dole (Lt.
US Army) tells of a Kansas boy from his hometown
who never returned from the Bataan Death March. These and other stories
trace the first 1,000 days of WWII including Hitler’s rise to power; the
attack on Pearl Harbor; the internment of Japanese-Americans; the fall
of Guam, Wake Island and the Philippines; Major Doolittle's daring raid
on Tokyo; and America's victories at the Battle of Midway and
Guadalcanal.
Volume 2: 1943, At Home and
Abroad - Actor Eli Wallach
(Capt. US Army) and Governor John Connally (Lt. Cmdr. US Navy) share
their memories of North Africa, while Sen. Daniel Inouye (Capt. US Army)
tells of the bitter fighting in the Italian countryside. Douglas
Fairbanks, Jr. (Cmdr. US Navy) remembers a commando mission in Italy,
and Mike Wallace (Lt. US Navy) recalls the haunting radio silence left
in the wake of a missing US submarine. These and other stories look
 back
at 1943 when the Allies took North Africa and Sicily- and the US
captured the Solomon Islands, Bougainville and Tarawa. While a mighty
citizen's army went off to do battle, American women took to the
front-lines of the industrial war-effort, and everyone on the home front
chipped in: rationing gasoline, growing victory gardens, and buying war
bonds.
Disc 2: Personal Journeys of
World War II, Part 2:
Volume 3: 1944, Victory in
Sight - As the Allied gird
themselves for the Normandy invasion, transforming England into an
enormous military base, the ferocious fight for Italy continues.
Cartoonist Bill Mauldin recalls the bloody campaign to seize Monte
Cassino, while Senator Daniel Inouye (Capt. US Army) fighting with the
renowned 442nd Japanese-American Regiment, chillingly relates his
killing of an enemy soldier during the Allied drive on Rome. Their
stories and others paint a vivid pictures of the events of 1944
including: the D-Day invasion, the battles for the Marshalls, the
Marianas, Saipan, Tinian and Guam in the Pacific; the liberation of
Paris; MacArthur's return to the Philippines; the Battle of the Bulge;
and the heroic deeds of the Tuskegee Airmen.
Volume 4: 1945, "V" for Victory
- Gerald Ford (Lt. US Navy)
recalls near misses by kamikaze pilots in the Pacific, and Senator Bob
Dole (Lt. US Army) reflects on the moment he was seriously wounded in
Northern Italy. Senator Daniel Inouye (Capt. US Army) matter-of-factly
reconstructs the fateful day he was wounded three times while destroying
three enemy machine gun emplacements, and Bill Mauldin remembers looking
into the heart of evil during the liberation of Nazi concentration
camps. These and other powerful, personal tales continue as 1945 shapes
up into a year of victory. Iwo Jima and Okinawa fall to US forces and
the Allies cross the Rhine, linking up with the Russians on German soil.
Hitler's once vaunted army crumbles and his suicide signals Germany’s
surrender. Shortly after V-E Day, Japan's fate is sealed at Hiroshima
and Nagasaki.
Disc 3: America Goes to War,
Part 1:
Volume 1: While the Storm
Clouds Gather - This program
relives the turning-point years of 1939-1941. Hope was finally in the
air after the Great Depression, and the songs and movies of the day
reflected it. But, those few carefree days turned uneasy when movie
matinees began showing ominous newsreels of Hitler's growing power – and
radio broadcasts of giddy swing music were interrupted by disturbing
accounts of Japanese offensives in China. Americans' hopes for a
separate peace were shattered by the attack on Pearl Harbor.
Volume 2: Praise the Lord and
Pass the Ammunition - America
was at war, and the survival of the mightiest nations in the world hung
in the balance…until the American people threw their weight behind the
Allied effort. Newsreel footage reflects the early chaos, and how the
American people rose above it to amaze the world with the unprecedented
swiftness of its mobilization of military and industrial might. But the
battle had only just begun, and American resourcefulness was facing only
the first of many grim tests in the struggle to end the tyranny that
would kill millions.
Volume 3: Sacrifices and
Shortages - The American war
effort breeds an odd sort of prosperity – there's full employment, but
not much to buy. Gas and food is rationed, and there are shortages of
cigarettes and nylons. Americans turn to Victory Gardens and the black
market for hard-to-find items, and the government subsidizes some of its
own shortfalls with scrap drives and when spirits on the homefront begin
to lag, celebrities step in to boost civilian morale.
Volume 4: A String of Pearls -
This program examines women's mass entry into the labor force, replacing
the men who went off to battle. Many women thrived in their new roles on
the factory floor and in the office suite. But as the war wound down,
the propaganda machine started preparing women for a return to the
kitchen. While some of them enthusiastically complied, the door was now
open for future women to pursue work outside the home.
Disc 4: America Goes to War,
Part 2:
Volume 5: On the Shady Side of
the Street - Life had its dark
side in homefront America. The dislocations caused by war and increased
job mobility led some people to question their values and loosen their
behavior. Sexual promiscuity and juvenile delinquency became publicly
debated problems. Meanwhile, newsreels railed against prostitutes and
golddigging "allotment Annies" who preyed on lonely and impressionable
servicemen. The "morning after" consequences of some of this homefront
behavior soon became clear in the postwar years, when America found
itself with a steeply rising divorce rate.
Volume 6: Right in Der
Fuerher's Face - Hollywood
joins forces with Madison Avenue and Tin Pan Alley to grind out
propaganda in an effort to stir morale on the home front. America is
bombarded with posters, songs and films that portray black marketers as
duty-shirking parasites, and its enemies as diabolical villains or
silly, comic fools. While much of the propaganda is corny and
self-serving, its uglier side effects are revealed when racial attacks
on the Japanese lead to the justification of internment camps for
American citizens of Japanese descent. Eric Sevareid's thoughtful and
provocative narration takes some of the nostalgic shine off "the good
old days," and examines their darker - and in some cases - quite tragic
realities.
Volume 7: Thanks for the
Memories - Eric Sevareid looks
back at how American show business went to war on the American home
front in WWII. Service clubs honor the ordinary American enlisted man
and Dinah Shore leads servicemen tours of the Hollywood canteen. Frank
Sinatra and Bing Crosby team up to sell war bonds as part of an effort
to rally an entire country around its fighting men and women. Abbott and
Costello's question of "Who’s on first?" takes on new and poignant
meaning as the ranks of major league baseball are thinned out by massive
enlistment drives. Other sports were also affected as Notre Dame sees
its depleted football team thoroughly beaten by a talent-heavy Army
team.
Disc 5: America Goes to War,
Part 3:
Volume 8: Accentuating the
Positive - The troupers of the
U.S.O. are recalled in footage of overseas tours that brought big-name
entertainment to the troops on the front-lines. Bob Hope, Marlene
Dietrich and Joe E. Brown are just a few of the stars that head to the
war zones to boost morale. Armed Forces Radio broadcasts carried the
latest swing music, news and pop culture to American service men and
women around the globe. The sounds of home meant a great deal to those
fighting a war so far away from the land and people they loved. Here's a
rare look at patriotism of a time gone by.
Volume 9: Mood Indigo, Blacks
and Whites - Eric Sevareid
probes some of the often overlooked events on the American home front
during WWII. Although African-American servicemen distinguish themselves
overseas, and black civilians continue to back the war effort, racial
prejudice and discrimination continues to plague American culture.
Segregation in the armed forces and the civilian population feeds unrest
and even leads to rioting. It seems the question of good and evil - of
justice and injustice - is not as black and white as some of America's
propaganda suggests.
Volume 10: It's Been a Long,
Long Time - The long, bitter
road to victory finally leads to the capitulation of Germany and Japan,
and Americans find themselves as unprepared for peace as they were for
war four-and-a-half years earlier. The massive war industry is shut down
and the GI Bill is introduced to keep millions of returning GIs off the
job market by enrolling them in college. The Baby Boom explodes and a
new materialism sweeps across the country when those college-educated
veterans enter the middle class. America, which broke from its posture
of isolationism to enter the war as the world's hope, has now become the
world's necessity as it steps uncertainly into the role of international
leadership.
Disc 6: The Four Army Chaplains
- In 1943, four young Army
chaplains, a Catholic priest, a Jewish rabbi, and two Protestant
ministers, performed one of the most courageous acts of WWII. They were
aboard the USAT Dorchester on February 3, 1943, when the ship was
torpedoed by a German submarine in the North Atlantic. As the ship
slowly began sinking Lt. Alexander D. Goode, Lt. Clark V. Poling, Lt.
George L. Fox and Lt. John P. Washington heroically calmed the terrified
soldiers and helped in the evacuation of the ship. The four men
eventually gave up their life jackets as the supply ran out, ultimately
sacrificing their own lives so hundreds could be saved. This is the
inspiring true story of their heroic act. On December 19, 1944, all four
chaplains were posthumously awarded the Purple Heart and the
Distinguished Service Cross. Their memory has lived on through a chapel
dedicated to their legacy in 1951 by President Harry S. Truman in
Philadelphia.

The Battle of the Bulge.
Military History Video. DVD.
1 Hours & 30 Minutes.
In mid-1944, it looked as if the war in Europe was coming to an end.
Hitler was on the run, and the Allies had triumphantly regained Paris,
as well as Casablanca and Tripoli, Naples, and Rome. After five hard
years of war, Allied soldiers were breathing easier—even stopping to
enjoy dances and parties.
Hitler, however, had one final card to
play. In December 1944, he struck back with a brutal counterattack. The
Battle of the Bulge was the single biggest and bloodiest battle U.S.
soldiers have ever fought. Almost 80,000 Americans were killed, injured,
or captured in an infernal test of courage and endurance that ultimately
ended with a hard-won victory for the Allies.
Battle of the Bulge looks at the
battle through the eyes of the U.S. soldiers and combat officers in the
field—the young men charged with holding the line and closing the bulge.
They describe the events leading up to the attack and how the Allied
forces were caught unprepared—and talk with disarming honesty about the
grueling physical and psychological conditions under which they fought
and of the memories that still haunt them. Packed with rare archival
newsreel and Army footage, this documentary offers a compelling
chronicle of war that captures both the action on the front lines and
the strategy behind the scenes.
Special DVD features include: link

The Nuremberg Trial.
Military History Video.
VHS.
45
minutes.
Of all the war crimes committed in
history, those perpetrated under Hitler's Third Reich were the most
devastating, both in terms of cost and of lives lost. These deeds were
so terrible that when World War II ended, the victorious Allies had to
develop an entirely new body of law--international criminal law--to deal
with them.
When members of the top Nazi hierarchy were finally brought to
justice in the bombed-out city of Nuremberg, the entire world finally
was able to see the extent of the Nazi horror.

The Trial of Adolf Eichmann.
Military History Video.
VHS.
45
minutes.
In the event now known as the Holocaust, the Nazis systematically
exterminated some 6,000,000 Jews. Once the extent of that crime became
known, it became imperative to bring its perpetrators to justice.
But in the confusion of postwar Europe, finding the criminals was
difficult, and many slipped through the authorities' fingers. One of the
most prominent was Germany's "Minister of Death," Adolf Eichmann, who
eluded capture for years.
How he was tracked down and brought to justice is this segment's
compelling story.

Nazi Germany was, in all practical respects, over - it was just a matter

Pockets of resistance needed to be mopped up and the final surge to

resistance was a thing of the past. The Soviets would take Berlin; the
Americans would march in behind them.

The Liberation of Europe Vol. 2: Air
War Europe.
Military History Video.
VHS.
In the beginning, the Nazis rulled the skies. Allied bombers were easy
prey for the battle-hardened hunters flying over occupied Europe.
Then came the little friends - fighter plane escorts for the B-17’s
and B-24’s flying deep into Europe, and all the way to Berlin - and the
tide turned. Air War Europe is a collection of remarkably blunt programs
that chronicle the air war over Europe during World War II.
It includes an opening montage of rare, controversial photographs that
document the terrifying losses to American bombers. Then you’ll see
official, war-era television documentaries - produced at the time - that
explain how new tactics and daring missions reclaimed the skies from
Hitler’s Germany, and much much more.

The Liberation of Europe Vol. 5:
Into Nazi Germany.
Military History Video.
VHS.
60
minutes.
After the rapid push across occupied
France, American soldiers faced the sobering prospect of doing battle
against Nazi Germans, on German soil. Instead of joyful citizens
welcoming the long-awaited liberators, they would enter bombed out towns
as the spoilers of Hitler’s dreams.
Who knew what dangers lurked, what problems would emerge as
soldiers advanced across the sacred soil of the Nazi Fatherland? One
thing, though, was certain - the fighting would intensify.
The programs you are about to see pick up the progress of World War II
from Autumn 1944 through the early winter months of 1945. Allied
soldiers are now advancing from France and the Belgian low country, east
towards the city of Aachen and then forward into the German Roer Valley.
The front lines resulting from this offensive will be one of the
broadest ever, and the fighting some of the hardest yet for the tired
Allied soldiers, and much much more.
