Cities of the Underworld (2007)

Episode Overview

In April 1945, the largest naval fleet in U.S. history launched an assault on Okinawa, Japan. Rather than a quick triumph, the operation escalated into the most brutal confrontation of the Pacific War. Much of the fierce fighting occurred not above ground, but below, within a network of combat tunnels and caves where countless civilians sought refuge. Join host Don Wildman as he immerses himself in the harrowing experiences of those who endured the Battle of Okinawa. He explores the intricate underground systems and ventures to the depths of the ocean to investigate a sunken naval destroyer off Okinawa's shores.
