Which to watch first?

As a father's day present, I got 3 dvd's: Sinking the Supership (Yamato), Hitler's Lost Sub and Victory at Sea. Any ideas, thanks ahead of time.

When I was a kid "Victory at Sea" was on the TV a lot. I used to watch it with my Dad. It was good. Hopefully they restored the grainy images for DVD. I think that series has a portion of it dedictated to the Submarine service.

Yeah, I believe so too. Just the thought of 26 episodes kind of gets me a bit apprehensive. I heard the actual footage is amazing and really looking forward to it.
Thanks sir for the reply.

I've been watching Victory at Sea off and on. The first episode is about the early u-boat war. It's a great show, with great music, and each episode is only 25 minutes long. The only lengthy documentary I enjoyed more was World at War.
