For nearly a decade, the legendary World War II aircraft carrier USS Enterprise held a pivotal place on the turbulent seas of war, engaging in some of the fiercest multi-front battles ever witnessed in modern combat. The only carrier to be front and center in every major sea conflict in the Pacific, the Enterprise and her crew's battles were marked by intense firepower, instinct and a 360-coordination between surface ships, the aircraft above and the submarines below. In each episode using incredible CGI visualizations, Battle 360 follows the Enterprise and its men through another conflict of WWII as they fight off the enemy from the air, sea and underwater. Relive the some of the most exciting World War II battles with all 10 episodes of this hit series on 4 DVDs.
