Pacific: The Lost Evidence

Archival aerial images, some lost or forgotten until now, are used to build 3-dimensional views of World War II Pacific battle sites. Including commentary by soldiers who fought in them, we revisit eight key battles of that war: Pearl Harbor, Guadalcanal, Tarawa, Saipan, Guam, Leyte, Iwo Jima, and Okinawa
