WWII in HD is the first-ever "World War II" documentary presented in full,
immersive HD color. Culled from thousands of hours of lost and rare color archival
footage gathered from a worldwide search through basements and archives, WWII in HD
will change the way the world sees this defining conflict. Using footage never before
seen by most Americans - converted to HD for unprecedented clarity - viewers will
experience the war as if they were actually there, surrounded by the real sights and
sounds of the battlefields. Along the way they'll meet a diverse group of soldiers
whose wartime diaries and journals show in visceral detail what the war was really like.

This visually astonishing landmark series presents the story of "World War II" through
the eyes of 12 Americans who experienced the war firsthand. Viewers will hear the story
of Army nurse June Wandrey, who served from the beginning of the war in North Africa to
the liberation of the camps in Germany. They will meet Shelby Westbrook, a young African
American from Toledo, who became a member of the famed Tuskegee Airmen; Jimmie Kanaya,
the son of Japanese immigrants, who served in the U.S. Army and was imprisoned in Europe;
and Jack Werner, a Jewish emigre who escaped from Austria before the war and wound up
fighting not against Hitler and the hated Nazis, but in the Pacific Theater.
