Discover the truth behind one of the most feared and fearless warriors in living memory: the kamikaze. Revisit the terrifying days of the Pacific Theatre during WWII as US forces face-off against the desperate and merciless kamikaze tactics of the Japanese air force in the battle for Okinawa. Witness the first organised kamikaze attack in history and hear from a survivor of the brutal assault of October 1944. But kamikaze attacks are not just restricted to aerial attacks or even the Japanese. In April 1945 the German Luftwaffe launched a volunteer unit called the Sonderkommando ELBE specifically in order to take down American bombers through mid-air collisions. And beneath the waves there were the Kaiten manned Japanese suicide submarines devised in desperation and developed in secrecy.
