Hell is for Heroes was shot on a low budget, but ended up as a film that deserves a spot in any war-film collection, which is testament to the skills of the people involved.

Headline Tag: Documentary Rating: Amazing Hits: 268 Comments: 0 Buried at Sea Buried at Sea The search for chemical and biological weapons in the world's oceans: Buried at Sea chronicles this shocking environmental story. Hundreds of thousands of tonnes of highly toxic materials lie scattered on ocean floors - in barrels that are rusting away and releasing their lethal contents. While we worry about weapons of mass destruction in the hands of rogue states, the West's legacy may prove far more dangerous. During the Second World War, Canada produced more chemical weapons than any other of the Allies. After the war, and during the Cold War era, massive weapons stockpiles were simply dumped into the ocean by the United States, Britain, Canada, the Soviet Union and Germany. They were considered buried and done with forever. Information about known dumps was either mishandled or suppressed. This documentary takes us on a journey to discover some of the most dangerous dump sites. The oceans are vast and finding weapons lying underwater will prove difficult. However, the health of marine species and coastal communities is at risk. Buried at Sea takes viewers on an underwater search and weaves the stories of people around the world whose lives have been affected by these chemical weapons. Buried at Sea is directed and produced by John Wesley Chisholm and co-produced by Kent Martin for the National Film board of Canada. User: spam_vigilante Jun 5, 2008 2:53 AM

Headline Tag: Reference Rating: Amazing Hits: 1354 Comments: 2 Hitler's War on America Hitler's War on America Adolf Hitler's megalomania knew no limits: from the very outbreak of war, his strategists were forging plans to attack the USA. The most daring of these involved suicide missions, in which squadrons of German fighter planes would crash into Manhattan's skyscrapers as living bombs. Large cargo planes would carry small planes over the Atlantic. The fighter planes would then disengage, and their pilots would steer them into the skyscrapers of New York - a 9/11 scenario contemplated half a century earlier. Hitler had dreams of attacking the US. The dream was big, the logistics a nightmare but Hitler's determination was unbounded. So when the plans for a bomber became hobbled with problems, he brought in a host of extraordinary Plan Bs, including the use of seaplane bomber, a mid-air refuelling mission and the invasion of Iceland so the Germans could use it as an air base. On the ground, Hitler also had spies in New York sussing out potential targets. Many Nazi agents were already ensconced in the community and some literally walked in from the sea. Bizarre as it sounds, they would be taken as close to shore as possible by submarine, swim to the beach, change clothes, then catch the next train into Manhattan.
