What's on this DVD; Douglas A-20 Havoc This DVD is packed with the Douglas A-20 Havoc/Boston Attack Bomber in action from Italy, England and in the South Pacific. The A-20 was considered a medium bomber but had only one pilot, a bombardier and a rear gunner. This Bomber was a great help to the British in the early days of the war and was used very effectively in low strafing and bombing raids against the Japanese ships and air bases. Fast and durable, the pilots liked the plane very much. Plus, this DVD has a large collection of newsreels of the A-20 as a USAAF plane known as the Havoc and when used by the British, known as the Boston. This DVD has some very rare footage of this plane and it has taken us quit a bit of time to assemble the collection. We hope you will strap in and enjoy. 1st Film "A-20's Over Europe or A-20 Combat Operations".
