Nuclear weapons are the most awesome armaments ever built by man. Early atomic weapons testing made most countrymen proud of their country’s military prowess! The pride of owning the ultimate weapon is probably the single most determining factor in the proliferation of nuclear weapons.

In this DVD you will find very graphic scenes about the Bikini Island nuclear tests - one just above water and another underwater. You will also get a glimpse of Operation Crossroads, with great shots of the aircraft and missions of the U.S. Army and Air Force. Included is a conventional look at nuclear tests on houses and dummies at the Nevada test site.

This vintage collection features some of the great production houses of the era including Joe Bonica, Jam Handy, the U.S. Air Force, the U.S. Federal Civil Defense Administration, the U.S. Army and Cinefonics Inc.

These are the ultimate films about the ultimate weapons!

Here is a complete track by track list of what you will see:

Atom Bomb [Joe Bonica’s Movie of the Month] The first film on this DVD shows early atomic weapons testing. The film demonstrates the dedication that many of our service men had and have for their country and their loved ones. Testing the bombs was dangerous work but our military stood proud! Producer: Joe Bonica Sponsor: N/A Year: 1946 Length: 00:07:26 Audio: Mono Color: BLACK & WHITE

Operation Crossroads (Part I) The next track is part one of a two-part film which documents the Able Day and Baker Day blasts of the atomic bomb tests at Bikini Island in the Pacific. It contains footage fromthe many ground and aerial cameras set up to record the blasts, beginning with B-29 aircraft "Dave’s Dream" dropping an atomic bomb on Bikini Atoll. Producer: Jam Handy Organization Sponsor: U.S. Navy, Commander Joint Task Force One Year: 1946 Length: 00:12:06 Audio: Mono Color: BLACK & WHITE

Operation Crossroads (Part II) The second half of the film shows various test ships moored down before they are reduced to rubble. Also, you see pigs and goats left on the ship before they are vaporized. At one point a US official goes to the Island of Bikini to offer King Midas "gifts". Producer: Jam Handy Organization Sponsor: U.S. Navy, Commander Joint Task Force One Year: 1946 Length: 00:14:30 Audio: Mono Color: BLACK & WHITE

Special Delivery This track is dedicated to the airplanes and missions of the US Army. It starts out with a conventional look at the aircraft of World War II, and then has some shots of rare aircraft including the "flying wing". Finally, we see the Bikini atomic bomb test drop from "Dave’s Dream" - the same B-29 that levelled Nagasaki. Producer: U.S. Army Air Forces Sponsor: U.S. Army Air Forces Year: 1946 Length: 00:12:36 Audio: Mono Color: BLACK & WHITE

Operation Cue (1955) The raw power of nuclear bombs is highlighted in this film of eerie nuclear tests on houses and dummies at the Nevada Test Site. There is nothing coy, cute or comic here. This test was a valuable research tool. It got the ball rolling for civil defense and made people start thinking about how to survive an attack. Producer: U.S. Federal Civil Defense Administration Sponsor: U.S. Federal Civil Defense Administration Year: 1955 Length: 00:15:10 Audio: Mono Color: COLOR

Management of Mass Casualties, Part X: Management of Psychological Casualties The terror starts here. This is one in a series of military training films that can only be described as post-apocalyptic. There is a good, if not somewhat depressing, overview of what soldiers could expect on the battlefield after a nuclear bomb hits. The film primarily addresses the psychological terror the soldiers would face after the blast. Producer: U.S. Army Sponsor: U.S. Army and U.S. Air Force Year: 1958 Length: 00:23:13 Audio: Mono Color: BLACK & WHITE

Stay Safe, Stay Strong: The Facts About Nuclear Weapons The final film on the DVD is an instructional film on nuclear weapons for U.S. Air Force personnel. This partly animated film includes an explanation of nuclear physics; footage of atmospheric and underground testing; and a bomber making a crash landing. Producer: Cinefonics, Inc. Sponsor: U.S. Air Force Year: 1960 Length: 00:22:43 Audio: Mono Color: COLOR
