Given the plethora of war documentaries available today, it takes a truly unique vision to make any box set rise above the rest to capture our imagination. This Military Channel set does it, and with style. Rather than be an overview of the war, it concentrates on the weapons that make modern warfare possible and gives us a detailed history of how it came to be, how the weapon changed the way men fight and some insight into how the future of war will be changed as the weapon evolves. It’s especially fascinating to watch the way different cultures work on on the same ideas at the same time without ever knowing what the other is doing. Watching them fail along the way is equally exciting.
