Find out why kamikaze fighters, Japan's deadly weapons of destruction, would sacrifice themselves to destroy U.S. battleships and aircraft carriers. Examine the extraordinary individuals who risked their lives. THE BATTLE FOR MIDWAY: One thousand miles from nowhere lies lonely outpost of coral and sea called Midway. It was here in 1942 that the United states and Japan fought the greatest naval battle of all time, and changed the course of World War II.

Hear the amazing accounts of the four men who narrowly escaped with their lives, and watch as they pay their final respects to their fallen comrades three miles below the waters of Midway. PEARL HARBOR: LEGACY OF ATTACK: Dr. Robert Ballard, the discoverer of the sunken remains of HMS Titanic, uses his underwater navigation skills to survey the wreckage of the Pearl Harbor invasion of December 1941. With historical insight from World War II expert Dr. Stephen Ambrose and testimony from three survivors, this documentary gives an insider's perspective on the infamous day.
