History: WWII Color Pics
Recently rediscovered color photographs of the Secord World War are the feature here. The site is divided into such topics as The Battlefield, Psychology of War, The Home Front, and Social Aspects. Highlights include footage of African Americans in the Armed Forces and a montage of General Doolittle as he and his pilots plan their raid on Japan. The site also has backgrounders on the rediscovery of the color film footage, much of which had been presumed lost. <http://www.pbs.org/perilousfight/>
