Airborne : under the eastern skies, destination Berlin [videorecording] /
Under eastern skies -- Destination Berlin. Airborne: "destination Berlin" follows the journey of the airborne soldier in the later years of World War II. Already well established during the first few years of the war, the use of airborne soldiers by the Amerians and British continued as these units infiltrated enemy lines to break communicatios, rescue hostages and cause general havoc. Battles in Normandy, Holland and Germany were areas in which the airborne shined. These are the airborne soldiers who established the traditions of sacrifice, courage and valor that continue with modern day airborne units. Airborne: "under the eastern skies" explores the ongoing evolution of the para-trooper after World War II. Covering everything between the Korean War in the 1950s to British SAS involvement in the Falkland Island during the 1980s, under the skies explores airborne from the American, British, French and Russian perspectives. Through any weather, terrain, or circumstance, these units proved to possess the qualities of bravery, strength, and fortitude that have become so typical of the airborne.DVD format ; Dolby digital.
