Combat Camera - Pacific

Imagine a group of soldiers trained in search and rescue, desert survival, and deployment into hostile areas, only instead of carrying weapons, they carry cameras. Combat Camera -- The Pacific uncovers the unique operation in which photographers documented armed forces activities. Shooting everything from combat to war games, the ComCam personnel were everywhere. Their duty was to capture peaceful images such as humanitarian efforts and scientific research, as well as the harsher reality of battle. The release comprises original Movietone News, Universal Newsreel, and U.S. Navy footage as seen in theaters across the world. These unlikely heroes traveled from Midway to Iwo Jima, leaving behind a film legacy that remembers the glory and defeat of war.
