Updated and improved as of November 2016, this revised disc includes subtitling which does not extend three lines without being split; tighter and cleaner translating; and some video improvements.

Our translations of Die Deutsche Wochenschau newsreels covering the events, mainly in Europe, from March to June 1941 (but also including a 1942 film about the Battle for Crete -- see description), with first hand film reports.  Each part has variable film quality based on the original films it shows.  Overall, we would say the quality would correspond to a range of well worn VHS to excellent VHS quality.  There are some sound and picture quality issues on some of the selections.

1942 Film – Kreta – Ein Heldenlied unserer Zeit:  Made at the highpoint of German victories in Europe, the film presents a biased, but 

nonetheless, fairly accurate account of the battle for Crete the year before.  One sided, but interesting and informative.
