Royal Air Force at War

Imperial War Museum The Official Collection

Overview

During WWII, the RAF Production Unit filmed the RAF in action in every theatre of operations. Cameramen risked their lives alongside pilots and aircrew to bring back some of the most vivid and memorable combat footage of the war. From 1943 onwards, this film was used to produce regular newsreels - known as the GENS and GAFs - that were shown on RAF bases around the world. This unique two disc DVD collection features the complete set of these newsreels, mastered from superior 35mm prints.
