Dear Fellow Military Enthusiast,
As we’ve all seen on the news, the people of
Egypt have overthrown a dictator without firing a
single shot. It is a remarkable achievement almost
unique in human history, for freedom usually
comes at a much higher price. Through the years,
Americans have paid dearly in blood and treasure,
fighting for liberty around the world. In this catalog, we remember and honor those sacrifices and
hope you will join us in doing so.
Inside, you’ll find an expanded section on the
Civil War. April marks the 150th anniversary of its
outbreak, and with such an important date upon
us, now is a great time to learn more about the
conflict – the bloodiest in U.S. history – and to
add Civil War items to your library or collection.
Of course, the World Wars receive the lion’s
share of pages inside. You’ll find products covering the Allies, the Central Powers, and the Axis –
it is as important to understand what went so terribly wrong in fascist Europe those 70+ years ago
as it is to honor those who defeated it.

Then there is the post-World War II world,

hats and t-shirts, and do all the other things you
can to remember those who have won and upheld
liberty. Please call 800-989-1945, visit us online

Naval Aviation
In Noveber, 1910, a daring aviator named Eugene Ely took off from
a make-shift wooden runway aboard
a warship – the very first flight in the
annals of U.S. Naval aviation.
From Ely’s historic attempt to operations on the
deck of a massive, modern aircraft carrier, this program tells the story of the men and machines that
fly from ships at sea. You’ll trace the development
of naval planes and learn how ships have changed;
view footage of famous World War II engagements
such as the Marianas Turkey Shoot, the Battle of
Midway and the Doolittle Raid; and examine the
role that carrier-based planes have played in every
conflict, from World W ar II through the Gulf War.
