They Drew Fire: Combat Artists Of World War II DVD (1999)
A fascinating documentary about the little known "combat artists" of World War II -- the servicemen of artistic talent sent onto the battlefield armed with a paint brush and a rifle, ordered to capture the glory of the American forces on canvas. Utilizing interviews with veterans, vintage film footage, and the actual artworks of the soldiers (many of which have not been viewed since they were painted), Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalist Lanker presents a compelling portrait of the men who bravely created art in the most hostile of environments -- capturing all of the exhilaration, horror, and raw emotions of the American combat experience.
