DER OSTWALL + THE EASTERN FRONT, 1944 - 1945

In modern-day Poland, some 40 miles beyond the German frontier, lays a series of fortifications, which are better preserved than the more-famous Siegfried Line fortifications in the West.  These are the bunkers and tunnels of the Ostwall, which were built to defend the German borders in the East.  With the use of modern-day films and historical information, the viewer is taken on a tour of the military installations as they look like today and told what purpose they served back during the War ... and how well they served their purpose.

The second part of this DVD tells the story of the events on the Eastern Front during the years of defense against the Soviet armies.  Mainly using period films and newsreels, the viewer is shown an important part of military history from the German point of view, which is rarely covered in Western literature and documentary films.
