    Theres a download site you can join for free called Limewire , all the WW2 banned cartoons and more are there :) Word of caution , its highly addictive , theres so many..just type in Banned Cartoons and dont stray to the porno section.
    Ive spent more than one long evening saving these cartoons to disk after i was given a dvd of some.Going on 4 dvds now 16gb of banned cartoons and still counting : )

    Limewire's good, but if you want to get banned WW2 cartoons faster, just go on Youtube. That site has almost everyone made. Check for the Bugs Bunny one where he meets Goering and Hitler. It's awesome!


    As for what I've been watching:

    Battlefield: Normandy
    The Hunt For Hitler
    Vintage archival combat films from WW2
    Last Days Of WW2: Death Of The Reich

    Was watching a re-run of Antiques Roadshow from Churchill's old pad, Chartwell. Usual good stuff....then the local vicar turned up with a deactivated PPsh 41 with two original drum mags and a webbing pouch! Turned out he was a militaria collector.

    Amazing. How much did it fetch?

    Right now I'm watching Bloody Normandy on History Television. Chock full of interviews with WWII Canadian vets that landed on D-Day and fought in the Normandy breakout.

    I watched the last episode of Band of Brothers the other night which I full enjoy due to its historical accuracy, yet after another member pointed out that the Paratroopers were not the first to reach the Eagles nest, I am doubting the rest of it. hmm, take it with a pinch of salt.

    Here are some more WWII Cartoons . . . .

    All Together (1941) -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KiRfFGIBb9c A Disney cartoon featuring Goofy, Mickey and others, promoting the purchase of Canadian war bonds. Good imagery and music.

    What Hitler Wants -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRcBt904OJ0 A subtitled Soviet propaganda cartoon showing what Hitler wants to do to the world. "Speak to Fascists in the Language of Fire!" the cartoon commands!

    Donald Gets Drafted (1942) -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tmAqQA5bpcU As you would expect, Donald gets caught in the draft.

    Bury the Axis (1943) -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q1nwklXGafg Very early claymation. Very cool but not the best audio!

    7 Wise Dwarfs (1941) -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WgxHuHLPWog The Dwarves mine their diamond mine and then buy savings bonds!

    Enjoy!
