Brave New World S01e01

World War II: Witness to War tells the stories of the brave men and women who sacrificed everything in order to survive World War II. From the 1939 German Invasion of Poland, to the dropping of the atomic bomb, this series explores WWII through a deeply human perspective.

The legendary Levi's jeans, Heinz Tomato Ketchup, Boeing planes, precious Steinway pianos and the legendary Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New York - they are all achievements from the land of opportunity. But they have another thing in common: their creators emigrated from Germany to the New World.
