Memphis Belle
Supervised by Lieutenant Colonel William Wyler. The subject of this film, one of the finest documentaries ever put out by the War Department during World War II, is the final mission of the Flying Fortress Memphis Belle as it led a squadron of bombers in a daring daylight attack on the submarine pens at Wilhemshaven. The entire mission is followed from beginning to end with some of the most fantastic action ever captured on film. Made by the Photographic Section of the US Eighth Air Force, Memphis Belle is a dramatic, thrilling factual account of a real mission, supervised by the director who won the Oscar for Mrs. Miniver. VHS 40 Minutes

Target For Today
This is the classic World War II feature length documentary detailing a "maximum effort" daylight bombing mission deep into Germany. There are no actors in "Target For Today". This film was shot on location under combat conditions and features the officers and men of the 8th Air Force going about their deadly business. All aspects of an actual major raid in 1943, from early planning through final touch down and crew debriefings, are covered in this very thorough account. Anklam. Danzig and the FW-190 plant at Marienburg are the targets hit. Although inflating the bombing campaign's effectiveness, this is no sugar coated propaganda film. Heavy losses and the bomber crew's justifiable trepidation about making unescorted deep penetration raids on heavily defended targets are graphically portrayed. Over 1 and 1/2 hours of engrossing World War II footage.
VHS. 90 min.
