Crazy stuff, great footage of weapons in use, and some rare color footage.
A lot of stuff I've never seen!

Very nice collection of footage, makes you feel like you are right there with your comrades, beside them, during the action.

Thats what I thought. Very intimate. (get your mind out of the gutter)

I've seen most of that on TV, including the colour footage, over the years. Some of it has been used in assorted movies too. Think the guy was playing with a Time-Life CD.

I remember watching some old training films, they were captured from the germans and subtitled, one was 'Men vs Tanks' they used captured russian tanks and political prisoners as the enemy and German troops with live weapons I don't think there were many 'second takes' explained how to seperste the infantry from the tanks with MG fire and then disable and destroy the tanks at close quarters with shaped charges

I can't remember the name of it off hand, but there is a curret running TV show on the history of WWII with lots of actual footage. By the way the original film footage looks truly fantastic in high definition on a 92" screen with a high end projector system. . I couldn't believe how good it looked. The footage was a mix of the political stuff that you commonly see and a lot of actual in combat footage. I couldn't stop watching. It was fascinating. When I remember the name of the show I'll post it.
