Story of the Fighting I: The USS Intrepid (1995x2)
Data di messa in onda: Ott 01, 1995
Trace the invincible carrier of the U.S.S. Intrepid and the men who fought and died while battling on her decks. This documentary has never-before-seen footage of the Intrepid in action and includes first-hand accounts from aviators, astronauts, gunners, and officers, as well as commentary by General Colin Powell and U.S. Senator John McCain. It also features millionaire Zachary Fisher, the man who single-handedly saved the Intrepid from being turned into scrap, financing the venture to transform the ship into the world's largest naval museum. Seventeen storeys tall and three football fields long, the magnificent Intrepid was one of America's fiercest warships and saw a wide range of action -- from the WWII battle for the Leyte Gulf, to the deadly struggle in Vietnam, to the peacetime recovery of American space capsules.
