Actual film footage of the 6th Infantry Division can be purchased from Amazon.com or PBS from the four-part-series entitled “THE ROAD TO TOKYO,” from Columbia River Entertainment, originally released in 2000.
The footage includes a short film from the US Army Signal Corps made specifically for the 6th Infantry Division (some of it actual 6th Division action and some cobbled together from other Army sources). The footage about the liberation of Luzon has some totally authentic footage of the 6th Infantry Division in action.
