THE FINEST HOUR: The Battle of Britain - The Battle of Britain In the spring of 1940, Holland, Belgium, and France fell to<br />
the juggernaut of Hitler's army. The Soviet Union was Germany's ally, and America stood on the sidelines. At this time of<br />
great peril it was Britain alone that faced the Nazi army, and a nation's darkest hour became its finest.<br />
BATTLE OF THE BULGE - In mid-1944, it looked as if the war in Europe was coming to an end. Hitler was on the run and the<br />
Allies had triumphantly regained Paris, as well as Casablanca and Tripoli, Naples, and Rome. However, Hitler had one final<br />
card to play, and in December he struck back with a brutal counterattack. The Battle of the Bulge was the single biggest and<br />
bloodiest battle U.S. soldiers have ever fought, and it ultimately ended with a hard-won victory for the Allies.<br />
IWO JIMA: Red Blood, Black Sand - The US campaign to take Iwo Jima -- a tiny island<br />
660 miles from Tokyo, defended by 21,000 Japanese soldiers -- began on February 19,<br />
1945. It was expected to last only a few days. Instead it raged for over a month and<br />
became the bloodiest battle in Marine Corps history.<br />
