This is one of the best gifts I could give to two family members who served in the Pacific. They had not been keeping in touch with each other for sometime, but now they are calling each other and reminiscing about their past days of glory.
My husband has really enjoyed these DVDs and he said he learned a lot of information that he did not know.
