World War II in Colour (2008)
Episode 10 - Closing the Ring

The Allies are now on the offensive on all three fronts.
I'm not keen on heights at the best of time.
Parachuting into hostile territory?




















The Germans introduce the V2 rocket.
The scientists and technicians involved would largely escape justice.
They were whisked away to work for their new bosses.





















As forces push through Europe soldiers start uncovering Hitler's death camps.
This was the Allies' first concrete knowledge of the Holocaust.

There are many shocking images throughout the series
but these later episodes are particularly sobering.
I feel it's worth warning you in advance.
Brings the Frau Luxor to tears.
regards
Titus
