True war stories [videorecording] : the complete 39-part series / by Mill Creek Entertainment.;
Enter the combat zone and go behind the lines of engagement to hear the true stories of war from the men and women who lived it! Almost twenty years in the making, this insightful series is not the story of a single war but the stories of five generations of warriors, what they had in common and what was unique to their time and mission. These interviews represent a wide variety of branches, service locations, and military roles; collectively, they illuminate the dramatic and ongoing effects of the war on those who participated. Each of these veterans experienced the war in a unique, individual way; no two stories are the same. From the story of the kid from New York trying to comfort his comrades on the deck of his burning ship at Pearl Harbor, to the unflinching courage of an Indiana farm boy, wounded and alone who charged a communist- held hill in Korea to earn the Medal of Honor. Share the story of a young Marine who became a Hollywood star caught in the hell of the TET offensive in Vietnam. Hear the courageous story of a 5 4 female Marine officer leading her men into their first combat operation. Stand in the turret of a burning M1A2 Abrams tank with a career army sergeant as he leads his troop in the first assault through the streets of Baghdad and much more!E.DVD.

El Golpe Blanco - The White Coup. by Scheumann, Gerhard,film director.; Heynowski, Walter,film director.; Pinochet, Augusto,actor.; Allende, Salvador,actor.; DEFA Film Library (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;
Augusto Pinochet, Salvador AllendeOriginally produced by DEFA Film Library in 1975.Parliamentary Elections in Chile on March 4, 1973: Reactionary forces, financially backed by the American CIA and international cooperation, attempt to gain a two-thirds majority in the National Congress, which would allow them to impeach President Salvador Allende, who was democratically elected for a six-year term in 1970. These efforts by the right-wing forces and nationalists, a so-called White Coup, seemed to be the last legal way for them to gain governmental power. When this coup fails, the Chilean reactionaries resort to an armed coup, and on September 11, 1973 they successfully launch a military-fascist government.The documentary uncovers the tactics nationalists and their allies used to change Chilean politics during the Allende government. Original footage, photos and audio are interwoven with quotes about the CIA’s role in Chile from major British newspapers, including the International Herald Tribune, Time and The Guardian.This release is the newly digitized original English version of the documentary that was distributed world-wide after the film came out in 1975. The English script was written and spoken by John Peet, a British journalist who defected to East Germany in 1950.Mode of access: World Wide Web.
