2nd Anniversary Coming Up
Coming up soon we will be celebrating our 2 year anniversary. Opening our doors on August 10, 2005, we would like to thank our customers for their purchases that have allowed us to survive. We are happy to report that our first two years of business seems to have been a great success.
Where and What, We Are Doing
Expanding our availability to all types of historical research has helped us grow by leaps and bounds. Whether it be the average citizen wanting to reconnect with a relatives service, to authors looking for unpublished images, to working with the new WWII video game companies, Combat Reels is accomplishing it's mission of bring the footage out of the cans and straight to the public. We are also serving with true customer service. This is shown in our repeat business and in the fact that the company has received 100% positive feedback from our customers on Ebay. Our videos are being used in exhibits at the WWII Victory Museum in Indiana and the Tank Museum in Virginia. Overseas our products are found at the 1st Division Assault Museum, The Roosevelt Café at Utah Beach, and the "Operation Cobra" Museum in Marigny, France. We are also working with various production companies in the U.S and Europe to provide as much footage as possible to stop the public seeing the same old footage anymore. Combat Reels has also been able to assist the U.S. Government in honoring veterans of World War II. With the American Battle Monuments Commission decision to build new visitors centers at each of the overseas cemeteries, Combat Reels was approached to assist in both footage and historical research. The Normandy Cemetery just dedicated the opening of it new visitor's Center on June 6, 2007, and Combat Reels was proud to have provided critical information to the films and exhibits of the new center.
