Four veterans return for the first time to West Loch, Pearl Harbor, where the rusty tip of a submerged ship is all that's left of a mysterious accident they survived. On May 21, 1944, they were among the men assembled for the invasion of the Japanese stronghold at Saipan. Suddenly, there was a chain of explosions among the tightly berthed ships, and within minutes many of the combat-loaded ships were on fire. 127 servicemen died. The event remained classified until 1960, and the cause remains a mystery.

A chronology of the World War II battle that claimed 1,500 lives and wounded over 6,000. Examines the theory that the 72-day battle was strategically unnecessary.

Chronicles one of World War II's most infamous atrocities, the massacre of 86 American prisoners of war by the German SS in 1945. Includes an account of the war crimes trial in which 72 Germans were convicted for their part in the killings.

Among WWII's spectacular blitzkriegs, amphibious leapfrogs, and breakthroughs, the savage Italian Campaign stands as one of the bloodiest. To the amazement of Germany, prepared to abandon Sicily, the Allies slogged in a death-filled march up the "boot.

The British attacked German ships tragically carrying concentration camp prisoners.

A 2-hour investigation that answers one of WWII's most intriguing questions: How did the Soviet Union copy the U.S. B-29 Superfortress, the war's most advanced aircraft?
