Product Description
There are two films on this DVD. The first 30 minute film was produced by the Army in 1952 and highlights the World War II campaigns of the 7th Infantry Division. Called the "Hour Glass Division," the 7th Infantry fought in numerous campaigns in the Pacific. This DVD's highlights include the division training in California and Hawaii, and fighting on Kwajalein, the liberation of Leyte in the Philippines and the battle for Okinawa. There are video clips of generals Hap Arnold, Joseph Stilwell and Bolivar Buckner, and of the cemetery where troops of the 7th Division were buried. And after VJ Day, the video follows the Division to Korea, where it is assigned to patrol the 38th Parallel. The DVD also includes a second feature nominated for an Academy Award that was meant to help soldiers deal with fears in combat. Scenes were staged with actors playing roles.
