This richly detailed, visually stunning documentary series covers the entire dramatic saga of World War II in the Pacific. From Manchuria to Hiroshima, the people, armaments, locations and battles of the epic conflict are covered in 20 unforgettable episodes. The Allies' crusade to defeat imperial Japan's bloody expansion featured difficult, heroic fighting at sea, in the air, and on innumerable jungle islands.
This is the story of the creation of the Nazi war machine. We trace its origins from the Freikorps and street thugs battling in the German streets after the great war, to the secret German army that was trained in Soviet Union to hide from the prying eyes of the victorius Allies. We show the growth of the Panzer Corps, the mighty Luftwaffe and the feared SS. This is the most comprehensive look at the military force that took Europe by storm during WWII.
