Generally accurate, but with horrible film editing
I generally enjoyed the information in the videos, but cringed at the editing of the accompanying films. They showed the wrong aircraft, the wrong targets, misidentified aircraft and ships, and even had the wrong sound effects. They actually have quite a bit of the right footage, but for some reason decided to pad it with absolutely horribly inaccurate additional film. Then they showed the exact same films during which they described different battles. It really ruins what could have been an interesting and informative series.

Aircraft carriers the projection of power at sea
I have seen this series on television and intend to purchase a copy for “self-study.” Aircraft carrers played a very decisive role during Second World War and how Imperial Japan was brought to its knees when several of its flat tops were devastated by American dive bombers, hence hastened the end of the Pacific War, the saving of the lives of young American GIs and as recorded by dedicated war cameramen in VICTORY AT SEA movie series.My ancestral homeland of China is proposing of building an aircraft carrier in the near future purely to defend its vast coastline and south sea island possessions. Even if China has one or more aircraft carriers, she has no intention to flex its naval powers other than to cooperate with other nations in maintaining pirate-free sea lanes and in conducting anti-terrorist operations worldwide, and in a very effective manner…(you may believe this or not)!!!Thus, I want to understand the pros and cons of having and maintaining an aircraft carrier which is very expensive and calls for extensive technical know-how as well. It is exciting to know and understand the awesome power of a military floating city in a crusing Aircraft Carrier and its day to day activities abroad…!

Informative
The information provided is detailed but aimed at the history of World War II. Not much detail on the actual ships themselves. For that I had to get a different video.
