Product Description:
D-Day: The 6th of June'Twas the night before D-Day. One ship carrying Special Force Six leaves ahead of the main invasion on a dangerous mission. On board are British Colonel Wynter and American Captain Parker who each in flashback reminisce about their separate involvements with beauteous Valerie Russell. Will the coming battle (confined to the film's last fifteen minutes) determine which one comes home to her?Decision Before DawnWWII is entering its last phase: Germany is in ruins but does not yield. The US army lacks crucial knowledge about the German units operating on the opposite side of the Rhine and decides to send two German prisoners to gather information. The scheme is risky: the Gestapo retains a terribly efficient network to identify and capture spies and deserters. Moreover it is not clear that 'Tiger' who does not mind any dirty work as long as the price is right and war-weary 'Happy' who might be easily betrayed by his feelings are dependable agents. After Tiger and another American agent are successfully infiltrated Happy is parachuted in Bavaria. His duty: find out the whereabouts of a powerful German armored unit moving towards the western front. Guadalcanal DiaryConcentrating on the personal lives of those involved a war correspondent takes us through the preparations landing and initial campaign on Guadalcanal during WWII.Halls of MontezumaThe marines attack a strongly held enemy island in the Pacific. We follow them from the beach to a Japanese rocket site through enemy infested jungle as their ex-school teacher leader is transformed into a battle veteran and his squad becomes a tight fighting unit.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: ACTION/ADVENTURE/MILITARY & WAR Rating: Unknown UPC: 024543243397 Manufacturer No: 2234341

Rating:  - A disappointment
I was tempted to purchase this product, in the hopes that they would be films of my taste. They weren't!
I found them too 'gung-ho'! by far. Facts were virtually non-existent, save in name of the event. For a movie to be called 'D Day 6th of June', and for it to be hugely a protracted episode of a 'soap-opera' - albeit a quality 'soap opera'- is not far from misrepresentation.
The other movies are more truthful in their titles, but their factual worth is low indeed. As pure ... Read More
Rating:  - War Collection
I felt that these movies were very good. The war collection was a great collection to add to my library. It was great seeing Richard Widmark in a war movie. In fact he is still living and is over 90 years of age.
