Battle By Sea Movie Collection, Various Directors (20th Century Fox Home Entertainment, 2008).
Here’s a fun collection of classic WW II naval films in a new DVD package. Included are Run Silent Run Deep (Clark Gable and James Garner, 1958), Submarine X-1 (James Caan, 1969), and The Enemy Below (Robert Mitchum, Curt Jurgens, 1969). Great stuff.

The Presidents Collection, Various Directors (PBS – Paramount Home Entertainment, 2008).
Terrific compilation of the video biographies of ten important twentieth century U.S. Presidents (Teddy Roosevelt, Wilson, FDR, Truman, JFK, LBJ, Nixon, Carter, Reagan, and George H. W. Bush) from the acclaimed PBS series American Experience.

Generation Kill, Writer/Producer David Simon (HBO, 2008)
This is the fantastic 8-part HBO mini-series covering the experiences of a Marine recon company during the initial invasion if Iraq. Widely acclaimed by critics and Iraq War veterans alike for its unflinching honesty and faithfulness to its subject matter, this will be a must-have in any military video library. It goes on sale December 18, just in time for Christmas.
