Hell

In 1944, the Allies land in Italy, but their advance is blocked by the Wehrmacht. Meanwhile, the Red Army, continuing its inexorable advance to the west, finally reaches Berlin. In the Pacific, as kamikaze pilots pour down on the U.S. fleet, the Japanese army engages in an increasingly fanatic battle to the last man. In order to bring the Empire of the Rising Sun to its knees, the U.S. unleashes the atomic bomb.
