Product Description
With superb footage and a detailed script by leading military authority Bruce Quarrie, Amphibious Assault takes you with the US and British Marines and their Soviet counterparts as they sail on exercises, training to land on enemy occupied shores from northern Norway to the Middle East. All their major weapons and equipment are seen in action in film which has never before been generally available, including the US Marines most modern AAV7A1 armoured amphibious assault vehicle and the futuristic LCAC hovercraft.

Good video of amphibious warfare in the 1990s September 8, 2008
This is an informative DVD for anyone interested in amphibious warfare as it was practiced in the 1990's. For other people, there's lots of good action footage of Marines making landings and moving inland.
I was a U.S. naval officer in the 1960's, serving primarily in the amphibious forces. Amphibious warfare has changed quite a bit since then, and this DVD brought me up to date.
The DVD seems to have been assembled by a British company from various military training and information films, and primarily features US/UK equipment and tactics. There's lots of good footage about seaborne equipment and armored amphibious assault vehicles. There's nothing from the 21st century in it, but there is some history from the 1940's onward.
