Both propaganda films are "must-see"

This dual film set of these older movies is on a North American DVD format and issued in 2004.
"Combat America": Entertaining but it's a bit too much propaganda in a Hollywood production - which, in a way, makes it quite interesting. The acting is great - probably because it's timely and the actors can relate to their roles easily. This film should probably be seen after "The Memphis Belle" for maximum enjoyment.
"The Memphis Belle": Excellent actual air combat footage! Based on the true story of the crew of the B-17 "Memphis Belle". Most historians and militaria collectors would like to have this in their film library. This was a WWII USA homefront propaganda film. Very good for it's historical value but don't expect a "Hollywood" film.
