Operation Mincemeat
Season 1Episode 160 min

Operation Mincemeat

Floating off the coast of Southern Spain, the discovery of a British Royal Marine was considered a major intelligence coup for the Germans. Documents inside the soldier's attache foretold an Allied invasion that prompted the Nazis to transfer their troops and fortify the coast. What the Germans didn't know was that the body belonged not to a British officer, but to a Welsh tramp who'd been planted within their reach as a mode of Allied counterintelligence. Operation Mincemeat would be the Trojan Horse of World War II, that may have saved thousands of lives and pushed the Allies towards victory.

Battle of the Castle Itter

The Battle of Castle Itter is the strangest WWII battle the world has never heard of and the only battle where the Allies joined forces with the Germans to defeat the Nazi's. High up in the Austrian alps, an 18th century castle housed some of Nazi Germany's most important political prisoners. Here a ragtag band of former prime ministers, German defectors and American infantrymen fought off SS attack just four days before German's unconditional surrender.

Huertgen Forest

Between September 1944 and February 1945, US troops fought their longest battle in history, one so punishing soldiers called it 'The Meat Grinder' or 'Death Factory.' When troops entered the forest, they knew their mission: capture the dams on the other side. They never suspected progress would be so slow it would be measured in yards. What stood between the Allies and their goal? Minefields, artillery units, and hundreds of German pillboxes, not to mention mud, cliffs and ravines and the prospect of the Germans flooding the dams to delay Allied progress.

Operation Gunnerside

It's hard to imagine the destruction the world might have seen had the Nazis had access to nuclear weapons, in 1943 this seemed like a real possibility. Nestled in the Norwegian hillside was a facility that could provide the Nazis with another piece to their nuclear puzzle: heavy water. Vemork Hydro Plant had a giant store and the ability to produce more. With the threat of the nuclear weapons looming, the Allies would plan and carry out Operation Gunnerside, the most successful act of sabotage in WWII. A daring mission to thwart Hitler's atomic bomb. It would require skis, scaling equipment and explosives and the sacrifice of many brave men.

The Nazi Titanic
Season 1Episode 660 min

The Nazi Titanic

When Joseph Goebbles featured the luxurious SS Cap Arcona in a propaganda film about the Titanic, he never imagined this German ocean liner would meet a similar tragic fate. Over the course of the war, one of the most opulent ships ever built would serve many functions: a propagndic coup, a transport vessel, and eventually a concentration camp. This is the story of the Nazi Titanic, a floating metaphor for the war and its casualties. From one of the most luxurious ocean liners ever built to a floating death machine, the tale is even more tragic than Goebbels first intended.

Although the islands seem like a quaint tourist destination, the idyllic façade conceals the worst kind of criminal activity which tend to wash up on its beautiful shores. At first at odds and suspicious of each other, Arch and Fitz soon discover that they are better together... a veritable crime-fighting force.

Snapped

Who are these women and what drives them to kill? Oxygen's hit true crime series, Snapped, profiles fascinating cases of women accused of murder. Did they really do it? And if they did, why? Whether the motivation is revenge against a cheating husband, the promise of a hefty insurance payoff, or putting an end to years of abuse, the reasons are as varied as the women themselves. From socialites to secretaries, female killers share one thing in common: at some point, they all snapped. Each episode of Snapped chronicles the life of a woman who has been charged with murder. These shocking but true stories turn common assumptions about crime and criminals upside down, and prove that even the most unlikely suspects can be capable of murder.
