Before Victory At Sea, the average American had never had the opportunity to see major world events beamed directly into their living rooms. This documentary also marked a first attempt to use television to produce a complete, public record of a major event of any magnitude. Considered such an important landmark in broadcasting and the safe-keeping of history, Victory at Sea was aired in the 1950s by NBC entirely without commercial breaks. The series was huge in the lives of Americans, and it won both Emmy and Peabody awards for excellence in public affairs programming. Originally sold on TV for $199.99, today all 26 digitally restored, original episodes are available for the astonishing price of only $9.99 -- a super bargain and a terrific stocking stuffer for veterans of WWII – and of all future campaigns!
