HISTORY CHANNEL GIVEAWAY: WWII in HD – CLOSED
November 9th, 2009
WWII in HD premieres Sunday November 15th at 9/8c on HISTORY!
The ten-part series narrated by Gary Sinise draws upon more than 3,000 hours of WWII footage culled from archives and private collections around the world. Restored and enhanced through HD technology, the series brings to light riveting footage from sources that range from the National Archives and the Army Heritage and and Education Center in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, to Homer Helter’s Military Mall in Naples, Florida. The series follows a handful of people as their personal journeys intersect with one another throughout the war. Their stories, culled from diaries, journals, and new interviews, will be delivered with emotional impact by some of Hollywood’s top talents, helping to recreate the war’s events not as detached historical facts, but rather as profound experiences on the level of a great Hollywood epic. The veterans themselves also appear, recounting their experiences first hand. Join us online: Official Site, History’s Facebook Fan Page, and Twitter.

My most powerful historical event (that I remember from my own lifetime) was the assassination of JFK. My husband says his most powerful memory was the news of the concentration camps in place during WWII — he remembers learning of them only after the war had been over for some time.

My favorite moment in history would have to be The Civil War. It was a vicious fight which made families face one another and was able to hold our union together.

It would have to be September 11, 2001.

I will never forget the Space Shuttle Columbia. There was a teacher on board and we were watching the liftoff in elementary school. Then, as a teacher myself, we watched the attacks of 9/11 on a tv at the school I was working at.

i’d say mine would have to be when ben franklin stopped the nazis from using the dreaded earthquake machine to bring the colonies to ruins. his and his small army’s defeat of general cornwallis at the battle of mountain stronghold will forever live in all our hearts and minds.
