The Pacific War in Color S01E05 - Striking Distance

Allied forces move to take two valuable islands that threaten American air operations: Tinian and Guam.

Meanwhile, in India, rising star General Curtis LeMay is tasked with a top-secret assignment: fly over "The Hump" – the Himalayas – and bomb Japan. His own words and his personal footage, never broadcast before, show the desperate difficulty of the problems he faces.
