Review of World War II Pacific News

It is not our intent to recreate battle scenes or stories through modern day documentaries. This has been done considerably. Instead we are making available a collection of War-era newsreels and other military films that were created during the war, and you will see what folks saw during the war at home in theaters, or in the work place. Some were issued as propaganda, and thus suitable for the times, but may not be politically correct for today's society. However, these are not fiction. What you see is what happened during each conflict, and some are more graphic than others. It may not be suitable for small children, although these are not rated one way or the other. It is all history during a time when the world was a different place. These are from 16mm films that have been professionally transferred.

In the future we will be offering a few more DVD's of various films we have obtained.

This collection includes 8 different Black and White newsreels that were made sile
