| Description: | In 1942, during the darkest days of World War II, Japanese fighting forces seemed invincible as they swept into the Philippines, Malaysia, the Dutch East Indies, and Burma. But as this heart-stopping series shows, Japan's warlords fatally underestimated the skill, courage, and fast-growing firepower of the Allies in the Pacific. In nearly ten hours of exciting, authentic film footage, the Allied forces stop the Japanese juggernaut in New Guinea and the Solomons. The crucial battle of the Coral Sea paved the way for the decisive Allied victory at Midway. |
