1. Battlefield Russia: Eastern Front [Blu-ray]

Carve a path of destruction through vivid battlefields

Following the successful Blitzkrieg lightning war that devastated Western Europe, Hitler's minions naively foresaw countering the U.S.S.R. as a piece of cake. Instead, countless Russian soldiers waylaid the Nazis on the ice-encrusted plains of Stalingrad, waging a brutal battle of attrition that wore the Germans down and led to their immediate demise. As narrated by Tim Pigot-Smith (Quantum of Solace), this tripartite documentary package Battlefield Russia: The Eastern Front covers the three battles that were pivotal in this Russian victory - The Battle for Russia, The Battle for Stalingrad and The Battle for Berlin - emphasizing biographical profiles of various military leaders, discussion of the weaponry used, the political circumstances leading up to each battle, and much more.

2. Battlefield Vietnam: From Dien Bien Phu to Peace with Honor [Blu-ray]

PS5 Battle 1 Yr Pass + Ult Pk

The documentary package Battlefield Vietnam: From Dien Bien Phu to Peace with Honor chronicle's America's harrowing immersion in Indochina, from the mid-1950s (when the French colonialists were defeated by their Vietnamese subjects) through the mid-1970s, when the U.S. finally withdrew from Vietnam. The program also enlists a somewhat unusual perspective: in lieu of drawing on Vietnam-era footage shot by American photojournalists, it interpolates footage shot by Chinese, French and Vietnamese cameramen, much of it rarely or never before glimpsed in the U.S., that tell the story of the various conflicts. The package contains six episodes that proceed through history chronologically: "Dien Bien Phu - The Legacy," "The Undeclared War & Search and Destroy," "Showdown in the Iron Triangle & War on the DMZ," "Siege at Khe Sanh," "Air War Vietnam & Rolling Thunder," and "Peace with Honor."
