The Three Wars Of The Battleship Missouri DVD
* An extraordinary look at one of the most famous warships on earth.
* Footage from U.S. Navy archives capture a half-century of service.
* Visit the Missouri at its new home in Pearl Harbor.
She was the last battleship commissioned during World War II. The Japanese officially surrendered on her deck. Today, the USS Missouri floats in Pearl Harbor, a powerful monument to the devastating attack that propelled America into the global struggle and the battles which followed.
A true survivor, the Missouri stayed in service for fifty-one years, fighting in Korea and seeing action during Operation Desert Storm. The men and women who sailed aboard her last tour of duty could have been grandchildren of her first crew! In this intimate special, generations of Missouri sailors return to her decks to recall the historic career of this U.S. Naval icon."
