"Unsolved Mysteries of World War II" is in the style of an extended news reel. It consists entierly of narrated archival footage and photographs. No animation or expert/on-the-scene interviews that have became a standard part of historical documentaries since the release of this series are included. Nevertheless it is a fast-paced, information-rich and engaging series. As the title suggests the series focuses on strange behavior of Nazi personalities that still puzzle historians. The Nazi propensity for secrecy surly helped create these enigmas. Each episode provides the relavent history leading up ot the event in question, explains what is known about it and describes the lingering questions. In some episodes there is a bit of speculation about the reason for the Nazis' behavor. Unfortunately, following the fall of the Soviet Union and the declassification of intelligence reports from the era have brought to light a good deal more infromation that sheads light on many of the topics featured leaving the series rather dated. "Sworn to Secrecy: Secrets of War" is a good alternative series providing extensive, updated information on many of the topcis reviewd in this series.
