Race to Victory

It's 1945 and the final 100 days of World War II play out on both sides of the globe. In Europe, it begins with the Battle of the Bulge and ends with Hitler's suicide. In the Pacific, it picks up midway through the bloodbath in Okinawa and ends with a blast that will change warfare forever. Examine the final act of the European and Pacific theaters, captured through rare war footage and the personal accounts of U.S. soldiers from both campaigns, a British correspondent, and a Japanese admiral.
