This is a very good series, BUT there needs to be instruction on seeing all of the episodes.I found it in another review, click the ARROW next to main menu.I was some upset to think that I only got 15 of the 26 episodes.

This is the fifth (count em FIVE) release of this series on DVD and what most people fail to comment on is the actual DVD release itself.Yes, Victory at Sea was one of the best naval warfare series presented with actual B&W footage with narration by Leonard Graves and the music by Richard Rodgers as in ALL the Victory at sea releases whether it is a DVD or VHS edition.St. Clair Vision (2007), Mill Creek Entertainment (2005), A&E Entertainment (the History Channel version) (2003), Emson (2004?) ...
