Aldo Giannini: Pacific Theater
El Dorado Films, in partnership with Veteran Documentary Corps, presents Aldo Giannini: Pacific Theater, directed by John Giannini.
Like many other young men of his generation, after Pearl Harbor was attacked, Aldo Giannini joined the Marines with little idea of what lay ahead. After training, he was quickly deployed overseas and fought in the bloody Battle of Tarawa, surviving with a shrapnel injury and the haunting memory of witnessing the loss of 3,250 U.S. lives. He went on to fight in other battles and returned home after 3 intense years of service. Nearly eight decades later, he still questions if winning the island was worth the price.

    Yeesh. So much information in this program is WRONG. 1) Bletchley Park is credited with shortening the war by 2 years (Winston Churchill.) Not Turing. There were many geniuses at Bletchley Park. Turing was just 1. 2) There wasn't an "ULTRA program." Ultra was THE product of ALL collected information. It wasn't exclusively from Enigma decripts. It was collected from every source of intel. Captured prisoners, seaborne observations from aircraft and Allied subs. Once collected, it ALL told the story. But there simply wasn't an Ultra Program. 3) The first programmable computer was Colossus. Alan Turing had very little to do with the creation of or the operation of Colossus. Tommy Flowers and Max Neuman are known to be the creators of Colossus. The "drum" machine used to find the initial settings of the Enigma cypher was a "bombe." Turing DID revamp the Polish "bomba" machine to break Enigma settings. The Turing "bombe" didn't use tape to get data. The Heath Robinson and then Colossus used tape to harvest data. Colossus was built to find the initial settings for the highly complex Lowrence teletype cypher. Again. Turing had little to do with Colossus. Turing was working on the far simpler Enigma cypher.

    A wonderful story! My father was a ASTRP (US Army Specialized Training Reserve Program) kid till 1944, when at the age of 18 he was switched to the Infantry. He ended up in Germany for the Battle of the Bulge, MIA for 4 days, and later a guard at the Rhine River camps for German disarmed combatants (they were not classified POWs since their country had ceased to exist with Hitler's defeat). He was not sworn to secrecy, but never said a word about his service. When asked directly he had a couple amusing stories, but went to his grave never sharing anything but the bare bones of his life in the Army.

    The very last fort attack on the Lakota sioux indian territory! The fort Burford of ND, a surprise attack of December 1868! Three us soldiers were very brutal killed by a large party of hunkpapa Lakota sioux indian warriors! Nearly breaking the Wyoming fort Laramie treaty of 1868. Known as Sittingbull's forgotten war on the northern forts from 1866 to the Lakota sioux indian warriors the continued harassment parties of the early 1870's! My great inspiring message is out again! Have a very impressive beautiful day.😀😊

    Many preserved government secrets for decades. I recall my former WWII fighter-pilot and test-pilot dad (RIP, 2016-2015) at an airshow in Palm Springs circa 2000 being approached by a guy who wanted to know if he was the Colonel XXXX who had signed a certain USAF intel document regarding the MiG21 back in 1968. My dad refused to answer the guy -- until the guy produced a copy of the document with a dated "declassified stamp" on it... as well as dad's signature. Turns out the guy was a flight historian who happened to hear my dad was at a reunion there at that time. Dad was having a great time as a one-day docent who knew more -- from hands-on & contemporaneous experience -- about most of what was in the air museum in Palm Springs than did the actual docents. Indeed, the docents were thrilled to learn from him... and it was clear that they had learned a lot of what they knew from guys like my dad who had visited the museum over the years. Not taking anything away from Jean, but those who experience genuine and immediate existential threats (not ethereal ones like Biden's "climate crisis" which is debatable using extant data, its medial quality and the lack thereof) like WWII (and the Cold War) take matters like secrecy seriously. Not all of them, but many. I hope that is still the case. Jean's is yet another engaging story of the "greatest generation".
