This fascinating series from HISTORY™ will explore the world of the US Navy Submariner in World War II.
We'll dive deep to periscope depth in the Pacific and hunt a convoy of Japanese freighters, surface in the Atlantic and fire upon a stricken German U-Boat, sneak into Tokyo Bay and wreck havoc upon the Japanese Fleet and learn about the men who lived and hunted under the sea, while discussing the different submarines and their use in war.
Plus we'll explore the tactics used to destroy the enemy and how submarines contributed to the final defeat of Imperial Japan and Nazi Germany.
Take a journey beneath the waves and discover the incredible story behind The Submarines of World War II: The Silent Service.
Over six hours of footage across four discs tell the fascinating stories of the submarines of World War II.
