The Marine Corps has long enjoyed a unique place in the American military not quite independent, yet with a vastly different focus than the Navy to which they are attached. In many ways, the aviation branch of the Marines holds a similar place within the Corps. MARINE CORPS AVIATION is a thrilling look at the 80-year history of the flying Marines. Military historians and current and retired Marines tell of the battles and advancements that have shaped one of the world's most specialized military forces, trained in the difficult job of offering air support to land forces coming in by water! Incredible footage of Marine aviators in action in World War II, Korea, Vietnam and the Gulf War shows how they have honed their skills and tactics over the decades, while in gripping interviews pilots tell what it was like to fly in those conflicts. And get an up-close look at the unique planes and helicopters they have flown, from primitive prop-planes to the versatile Harrier Jump Jet.This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media.

When a pair of bicycle mechanics first lifted off from a North Carolina beach, they had no idea that their invention would transform the way wars are fought. Yet within a few years, the Army came knocking on the Wright brothers' door, and a new age of combat began. From the dawn of aviation to the awe-inspiring jets of today, this is a comprehensive history of fighting aircraft. See extensive footage of the Wright brothers' historic first flight and precision attacks on Baghdad during the Gulf War. Fly with the brave pilots of the Battle of Britain, who led their undermanned and outnumbered air force to victory over the vaunted Luftwaffe, and take to the skies over Korea and Vietnam. And hear what it is really like in the confusion and chaos of a dogfight from some of the world's finest aviators, men who have risked their lives in the air and pushed the edge of the envelope.This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media.
