The American War Machine of WWII DVD

This is the story of the creation of the American military from the small 100,000 man force of the post World War One era to the mighty military industrial complex that fought fascist forces around the world. Detailing the hardware and tactics of the U.S Army, who in the 1930s, lacked machine guns and tanks. From the smouldering wreckage of Pearl Harbor to final victory, this disc presents the U.S Navy and its two ocean wars. The marines were America's fighting elite, a small police force that grew into one of the most feared fighting forces. This disc also tells the story of how its success almost became its downfall.
