Battle of the Bismarck Sea - Castle Films silent documentary

3 years ago

Digitized from the 16mm version, this silent documentary by the now-defunct and vanished Castle Films is a wartime piece, rather heavy on the pro-American war effort propaganda, but worth viewing for, if nothing else, all of the wartime aviation training and combat scenes. Some good footage from the named battle, though that is edited in with obviously staged scenes not actually from combat. Regardless, some really excellent scenes of military aviation during WWII. Published for historical education and critique.
