Marines in the Pacific
They were teenagers who became more than men, they became Marines. With the world in conflict, they saw, smelled, and tasted war on the most intensely personal level. They stood on the rails of darkened troopships and wondered how long they had to live. They saw too many of their best friends die in the most horrible ways possible. Marines in the Pacific is a unforgettable tale of the boys who answered the call of duty, a call that took them into combat against the toughest opponent in America's history; the Empire of Japan. Across fire-swept beaches, in trackless jungles, on rugged coral ridges, the Marines of World War II kept going. Every battle, every campaign, each freshly dug grave was a marker on the Road to Victory. In Marines the Pacific you will hear the complete story told by the veterans who were there. To them "kill or be killed" was more than empty words, to them it was life and death!

U-Boats Hitler's Sharks
From the beginning of the Second World War the sea became a vitally important scene of conflict. Great Britain relied on receiving supplies by sea and, therefore, a total blockade of the United Kingdom was one the main objectives of Hitler's Germany. The British government was forced to maintain a strategy of antisubmarine warfare throughout the conflict, while the Royal Navy sought to interrupt the Third Reich's maritime traffic. In these circumstances the submarine became an important weapon of war. Headed by Karl D nitz, who would later succeed Hitler as Head of State, the German U-boats gained the initiative in the sea war and from the beginning launched all-out attacks against shipping en route to Great Britain. One of the great unanswered questions of the war is what would have happened if Hitler had granted the numerous requests made by D nitz for more submarines?
