Nice History Lesson
I was fortunate enough to take a dive trip to Truk Lagoon. Upon my return, I wanted to learn a little more about the events that led to the magnificent wrecks I had just been on. This video provided me with that. It gave a narrative of the attack and events leading to it, and included some archival footage of the attack. The more recent footage of dives on the wrecks brought back some great memories. It was also interesting to hear the Chuukese people describe their perspecitve of that place in history. My only complaint would be that it wasn't long enough, but I assume that is due to television limitations. If you want a good overview on a critical turning point of World War II, plus some beautiful underwater footage, watch this video.

Little Underwater
My biggest problem was the insufficent ammount of actual underwater footage. I expected some actual dive film on several of the key ships but got none. I didn't buy this to listen to fat natives talk about the attack.
