The
Rain of Steel
VHS Video.
Strategic bombing was essential to the U.S. victories in Europe and
Japan during World War II. But aside from ultimate success, the air wars
fought in the Pacific and Atlantic shared very little. This authoritative
program uses extensive expert commentary, interviews with veterans and
remarkable footage to tell the story of strategic bombing in World War
II. From the planes such as the battle-proven B-27 in Europe and
the modern, high-flying B-29 bombers in the Pacific to the underlying strategies,
explore the astonishing differences between the two theaters. See the results
of the devastating firestorms at Dresden and Tokyo, where incendiary bombs
produced temperatures of over 1,000 degrees centigrade, winds that
sucked away trees three feet in diameter, and more deaths than Hiroshima
where they dropped the Atomic Bomb.
Our Century profiles the role of the bombers in World War II, from nighttime
raids over Berlin to the historic missions that unleashed the atom bomb
on mankind. 50 min. |
