A nightmare scenario. On the first night of Operation Desert Storm in 1991, US Navy Pilot Michael "Scott" Speicher is shot down over Iraq. And with no sign of life, he is declared dead - the first casualty on the first night of the first Gulf War. Then, ten years later, the unthinkable. In 2001, based on mounting evidence that Speicher had actually survived and was being held as a POW, the Secretary of the Navy changes Speicher's status from Killed in Action to Missing in Action - the first time an American veteran in any war had ever been removed from the KIA list and declared MIA instead. Now, a family and a nation watches and waits. After a second war with Iraq, coalition forces in Baghdad search for answers. But so far, even the fall of Saddam Hussein has yet to solve the mystery and bring Scott Speicher home.

With the help from reconstructions and memories, several people recall the fateful days when the German warship 'Altmark' carried British prisoners of war in Norwegian waters, prior to Hitler's decision to have Norway occupied.

The German woman has long been a victim of the Reich. Suffering from deprivation, separated from her husband and children who went to war, or raped by the Soviets in Hitler's defeat, they have come through the judgment of history.

Coming from two completely opposite worlds, these two brilliant intellectuals never met: Rudolf Roessler was German and a fervent Christian, Sandor Rado a Hungarian Jew and an early communist. The unlikely collaboration of their respective networks in the heart of neutral Switzerland was decisive in the outcome of the war in the East and in the fall of Nazism. The Rado - Roessler mystery traces a key episode of the Second World War and bears the seeds of the Cold War. Their journeys through World War II made them the conflict's most important and enigmatic spies. 80 years later it remains a historical enigma.

During World War II nearly half a million German prisoners of war were captured overseas and sent to prison camps across America. 'Splinters of a Nation' tells the extraordinary story of 8,000 prisoners sent to Utah. For more than three years, these prisoners worked side-by-side with thousands of civilians on farms and factories across the state. This powerful collision of two enemies on the homefront created life-changing exchanges and friendships that have long outlived the conflict. Tragedy marked the end of their stay as a deranged American guard opened fire on hundreds of sleeping prisoners, killing nine and wounding 19. This tragic event in the small rural town of Salina became the largest WWII massacre on American soil.
