<DIV>Cecil: We must be of the same generation. I, too, remember
the War years, and I have Victory at Sea also. Really worth it. I also
managed to get a Special Set from Disney called "Victory Through Air Power" by
Alexander De Severski. it's animated by Disney, also has a bunch of War time
Disney Cartoons, and some propaganda shorts about conserving for the
War.</DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial>There are many things that I remember about WWII, but
today my letter flipper (mail man), dropped the 2 DVD, 26 epasodes (12 hours
total), of "Victory At Sea" through my mail slot. A very great
buy!</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I remember the really bad synthetic rubber ballons
produced near the end of WWII. We didn't have to pay for them until
you inflated them and they didn't break (Foster, Or, general
