Noted Novelist and Historian Hosts Military Video Website

Retired Army Colonel Brings Real World Experience to RealMilitaryFlix.com

LOS ANGELES, April 16 /PRNewswire/ -- The internet's largest military history video website, RealMilitaryFlix.com, welcomed retired US Army Colonel John Antal this week. The 30-year veteran will lend his expertise to guide visitors through the site. RealMilitaryFlix.com spotlights historical movies made by military organizations for documentation, training and even propaganda purposes. It also features new military videos from Iraq and Afghanistan and other collections such as the WWII secret agent training films which were once classified as Top-Secret.

Veteran television producer John Corry founded the site. He first met Antal in 1993 when he interviewed him for the A&E and History Channel series Weapons at War hosted by George C. Scott. "John was one of the most knowledgeable experts I had met," Corry said. "In one day's taping he delivered so many memorable sound bites that we included him in six episodes."

At the time Antal was on active duty with the US Army as a cavalry tank officer and an Airborne Ranger. Before long he was doing more interviews. Thanks to reruns he was appearing on television on a regular basis. "I have a passion for military history," Antal said, "and it was professionally rewarding to describe some of the most dramatic battles of all time."

A graduate of West Point and the US Army War College, Antal is a dedicated student of the "Art of War." He has authored nine books and was the Founding Editor of Armchair General Magazine. He recently helped develop the best-selling Brothers in Arms video game series and a History Channel special based on the game.

In the meantime, John Corry amassed a library of historical military videos. "As we put RealMilitaryFlix.com together I reconnected with Colonel Antal to get his input and we've been collaborating ever since. Our subjects are vast and the library spans more than a century of military history, so it is reassuring to know John Antal is assisting us to present and interpret these military films."

RealMilitaryFlix.com has also joined forces with the internet's leading military resource and information portal, MilitaryConnection.com, to pass the word to military veterans and military history aficionados.
