Description
It looks as serene as an Alpine postcard, but Lake Toplitz, high in the Austrian Alps, has long been suspected of harboring evidence of Nazi crimes under Adolf Hitler. Until now, no one has been able to successfully complete a comprehensive sweep of the deep and dark lake floor to determine exactly what might have been dumped there more than a half century ago. This is part one of a two-part segment. Scott Pelley reports.

Description
As the Allied armies swarm into the collapsing Third Reich, the disagreements of Roosevelt and Churchill allow Stalin to gain effective control of Eastern Europe. The British military favors a sweep through the north of Germany to take Berlin. But Eisenhower opts instead to leave that region to the Red Army. The Americans effectively yield Poland to the USSR to gain Russian support for the ongoing war against Japan.

The horrors of the death camps are exposed to the world with prisoners' liberation by the Allies; the loss of human lives in the forced marches, and in the flight in the east from the Russian steamroller is enormous. Political maneuvering among the Big Three began in earnest as they sought to segregate Europe's nationalities; the division of Germany into occupied zones is determined, but the fates of other nations are determined by the momentum of the Soviet's drive to the west.

Description
World War II perhaps saw the greatest advancement in air warfare of the 20th century. Conflict was now determined on the battlefield and in the air above, with both fighter aircraft and bombers playing a much larger role. In this program, the first in a series of three following the development of air assault, the conflict between Germany and Britain is examined before the US entered the fray.

Following the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Japanese Empire rapidly surged out into south-east Asia and the Central Pacific. Triumph & Defeat '41 - '45 tells the story of the initial Japanese successes and then the relentless fight back by the Allies across the vast distances of the Pacific. Allied Air Force & Navy aircraft supported the advance through the Solomon, Gilbert, Marshall and Philippine Island groups. With the Mariana Islands secured, the massive B-29 bombing campaign would now take the war to Japan itself, culminating in the devastating atomic bomb attacks of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
