A Century of War 1 of 6 – WWII Rarely Seen Films

A Century of War 1 of 6 – WWII Rarely Seen Films ***Uploaders Note*** - This remarkable boxed set of over 85 films was released in 2009 by the United States National Archives. It consists of wartime footage, movie newsreels, and propaganda films made from World War I through the Vietnam Conflict. No subtitles are available. Furthermore, the majority of the DVDs were produced so that it wasn’t possible to fully separate the films with normal ripping software. Therefore, many of the disks had to be ripped as one long AVI file; some containing multiple films. I have ripped every disk to the highest resolution possible, with an average bit pixel ratio of 1.50. I would have liked to have released it all as one huge torrent (I still might if the demand is high enough), but after all this work, I really do not want this to die an unseeded death, so I have decided to release it in 6 batches to keep the size down. The DVDs contained no special features of any kind. Several of these films were either nominated or even won Academy Awards back in the day, and are not commercially available in other venue I am aware of. For each torrent, I will include the screenshots and technical stats for one representative film.

This is a treasure and high class, a fascinating look a war events from different perspective that will make history buffs dance in joy. I can hardly imagine that kind of valuable material dying for no seeds.
Thank for all the efforts you're putting down to pull up this for us, most appreciated.
God bless you.

Cindy - No, I don't have it. It's available here on TPB as an .mkv, but I have not seen it yet. If you would like, I can try to convert it to AVI.
Abe - Thx for the kind words.
