History Film Corps


Take a look back into the history of WWII films, shot by non-professional service personal serving on the front lines.

Across America, pieces of history are locked away on film reels—unique views of the past all too often left forgotten in garages and attics. HISTORY Film Corps is the product of a nationwide search for World War II films, not those commissioned by governments or shot by journalists, but those captured by the men and women on the front lines.

Preserving and sharing the war experiences of soldiers, medics, aviators, photographers, sailors and more, these films are an important and deeply personal part of America’s historical record.
