Title: Thunderbolts: Conquest of the Reich
Product review: Most of the action footage shot during World War II was in black and white. This one is in COLOR! It is a documentary of the P-47 Thunderbolt in action over Germany. The film contains excellent gunship footage, especially of the aerodrome raids in April, 1945.Near the end of the program, thousands of German soldiers are shown walking back to Germany in defeat. U.S. Airmen are filmed during the close of the war and are shown during the disbanding of their units.The fact that this documentary is in color is what separates it from others I have seen. The vivid colors of the German country side, and of people, uniforms, and equipment bring a reality that black and white cannot duplicate. Having served seven years in Germany with the U.S. Army, I find that many parts of the country shown in the films look as though they were filmed yesterday. I highly recommend this video.
