WWII Victory At Antwerp Harbor
Royal British Marine Commandos and the Canadian 1st Army launch an all-out amphibious attack on Nazi positions in the approaches to Antwerp’s gigantic harbor. They capture Walcheren Island, Flushing and Westkapelle. Losses in some attacking waves run as high as 80%. To complete the victory, the British 2nd Army fords treacherous canals to capture Tilberg. Dutch theater. Battle of Scheldt.
Deathblow To WWII Japanese Imperial Fleet
Large sections of the Japanese Imperial Fleet enter the Philippine Sea from three directions, to engage U.S. Naval power in a show-down battle. Our flat tops aircraft carriers send their swarms of Helldivers, Avengers and Hellcats up into battle. A tremendous explosion shows us that the magazine of the U.S.S. Princeton has been hit. Japanese planes spin into the sea. Aboard another carrier, we watch damaged American planes limp in, to make unbelievable landings. 62 enemy vessels are sunk or seriously damaged. And to celebrate the tremendous victory, Tojo, in caricature, is lambasted into nothingness by ‘Ole Rubber Arm, the Sailor Man.
President Franklin D. Roosevelt Returns To White House
Following an established custom, Washington residents turn out to hail President Roosevelt as he successfully returns from the political wars. V.P. elect Truman escort him to the White House. On Armistice Day, President Roosevelt lays a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier of World War I.
College Football: Army vs. Notre Dame
Yankee Stadium—74,000 watch a battered Irish team try everything in the book—but West Point man-power, speed and deception give the Kaydets their first win over the Irish in 13 long years.
College Football: Georgia Tech vs. Tulane
Two giants of the South battle it out until Georgia Tech engineers a convincing win over the New Orleans entry. And for something new, there’s zig-zag play—one Tulane ball toter races hundreds of yards all over the gridiron, until he is easily dropped, exhausted.
