A film series based on Sir Winston Churchill's Memoirs of World War II.

Japanese successes in the East, culminating in the loss of Hong Kong and Singapore, do not blind Churchill to the fact that Hitler is still the main enemy. His visit to Roosevelt in Washington cements the friendship between the two countries. The Japs launch an air attack on the United States; but the success of the American dive bombers in the battle of June 4 proves decisive and turns the tide of the war in the Pacific.
(Last shown on April 15, 1961)
