NOVA
Killer Subs in Pearl Harbor
Wednesday, May 23, 9:00 pm ET

NOVA joins an exclusive dive beneath the waters of Pearl Harbor to trace new clues to the historic sinking of the USS Arizona. 1,177 crew members perished in the dramatic 1941 sinking of the storied battleship — the greatest loss of life in United States naval history. For decades, it has been thought that the Arizona was brought down by fire from Japanese aircraft. But the discovery of a Japanese "midget sub" far from the scene of the battle raises new questions about the Arizona's final hours. With unprecedented access to the Arizona wreckage, NOVA teams up with the Hawaii Undersea Research Lab to use manned deep submersibles in an attempt to resurrect the midget submarine. Using eyewitness testimony and reports from after the attack, this program examines the possibility that this mysterious midget submarine may have been a key Japanese weapon in what became known as the day of infamy.

Hell and Back Again
Monday, May 28, 10:00 pm ET

What does it mean to lead men in war? What does it mean to come home — injured physically and psychologically — and build a life anew? In “Hell and Back Again,” two overlapping narratives are intercut — the life of a Marine at war on the front and the life of the same Marine in recovery at home — creating both a dreamlike quality and a strikingly realistic depiction of how Marines experience this war.
