Victory at Sea, a 26-episode series on World War II, premiered on the last Sunday of October 1952, and subsequent episodes played each Sunday afternoon (with two exceptions) through May 1953. Each half-hour installment dealt with some aspect of World War II naval warfare and highlighted each of the sea war\'s major campaigns: the Battle of the North Atlantic, the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Battle of Midway, antisubmarine patrol in the South Atlantic, the Leyte Gulf campaign, etc. Each episode was composed of archival footage originally accumulated by the U.S., British, Japanese or German navies. The footage was originally shot mostly in color but was carefully edited and organized to ameliorate the viciousness of war. The drama of the production was enhanced by the Leonard Graves driving voice-over narration and by Richard Rodgers\'s musical score.(score was arranged by Robert Russell Bennett who also was the conductor of the NBC Symphony Orchestra for this production)

Compiled from over 60 million feet of combat and newsreel footage, Victory at Sea won instant praise and loyal viewers. Television critics greeted it as a breakthrough for the young television industry. An entertaining documentary series that still provided a vivid record of recent history. The New York Times praised the series for its \"rare power\"; The New Yorker pronounced the combat footage \"beyond compare\"; and Harper\'s proclaimed that \"Victory at Sea created a new art form.\" It eventually garnered 13 industry awards, including a Peabody and a special Emmy. (the series has been criticized for some of it\'s historical accuracy and objectivity, but remembering that it is from the 50\'s, only seven years after the end of the war, you can give it a little leeway on that issue, Most of it still plays very well after all these years)

This release comes from my rip of the Embassy Home Entertainment VHS tapes, second release (1986 6 tape set. Very few people paid 20.00 per tape for the 1982 first 26 tape release). It is coded in x264 and AAC sound at 960x720p (4x3) resolution. It is duotone B&W just like the original TV broadcast back in 1952 and I have done no alteration to the video or sound except for removing the Embassy VHS headers and trailers and converting the Mono soundtrack to Stereo..



Episode 23: Target Suribachi

Aired on April 12, 1953

Episode Twenty-three covers the U.S. Marines at Iwo Jima. Taken as a midway point between Tinian and Japan to serve as a fighter base for P-51 Mustangs to escort the B-29\'s from Tinian on their bombing missions to Japan. It also served the important role of emergency landing strip for any damaged B-29 aircraft returning from Japan. It fulfilled this role even before the fight for the island was over with the first damaged B-29 landing on the south airfield when the Japanese were still holding out. American military power in the pacific is now unmatched by anything the Japanese could ever have conceived. When the Island was declared secure, it was estimated that fewer that 300 Japanese remained, actually, there were more than 3,000. The last Japanese soldiers, Yamakage Kufuku and Matsudo Linsoki, lasted four years without being caught and finally surrendered on January 6, 1949. And, as the scene of the Mount Suribachi memorial appears, we are once again reminded of the price that comes before true victory can be achieved, \"Uncommon Valor was a Common Virtue\".
