This set is very much a mixed bag. The first problem is that the
discs are presented out of order. If you know anything about the
chronology of WW2, you can figure out their correct order.
Ike's son, Gen. John, provides linking intros to the "videos" as he
calls them. The "videos" are actually WW2 footage with narration. I
really can't tell if they used government produced documentaries,
or if this is just an old television show about WW2 (similar to
VICTORY AT SEA).
The footage used is a mixed bag as well, some of it looks great,
though. I would only recommend this for the most ardent WW2
enthusiast.
