![]() Rating: - Black HistoryI just want to say that I am glad that I ordered this DVD from Amazon. It is a very good and informative movie. I was getting ready to watch a DVD one night and this movie was one of the preview movies before my movie started. I don't even remember which movie it was on now.

It is so unfortunate that it took the United States Navy so long to recognize the valor and courage of these young men. I would recommend this movie anyone who is interested in the History of the our Great Nation, the United States ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
