Probably everyone know about this one, but it was new to me. I found a DVD with orignal WWII footage on Allied and Axis Tanks put out by QUESTAR under the Series "Great Fighting Machines of WWII". Some great footage and some extra inculding - Tanks in the News (old Newsreel stuff) and a German training film on "killing a russian tank". Great research stuff. Found my copy at a FRY's (a local computer/appliance store that sells DVDs) for only $4.99. Heck of a deal. Check out your local "CHEAPY" DVD Bins, never know what you will find!
