Videotaped aboard the Intrepid Sea•Air•Space Museum, Day of the Kamikaze is a unique approach to documenting World War II suicide attacks. We brought together high school students with veterans who survived the first mass kamikaze attack on the United States Navy's fleet off Luzon, Philippines on November 25, 1944.
Intrepid was one of the four ships hit by six kamikazes that day. Taking the students and the audience back in time to that fateful day, Day of the Kamikaze showed the students what it took to live - and fight - in the last months of the Pacific War.
The Day of the Kamikaze website is enhanced with clips from the American version of the video, narrated by Marvin Scott, and more information about the battles of November 25, 1944 and hundreds of photos of the attack, the kamikaze damage and more.
Day of the Kamikaze was the first hour-long television documentary produced by MFA Productions LLC. Our second documentary, Nine Sisters, in currently in production.
