The documentary, narrated by Peter Thomas, was produced with the support of the Alaska Legislature and the Alaska Historical Commission. It aims to document and preserve the events that unfolded in Alaska during World War II, a topic that is often overlooked in broader war narratives.

Filmed with the assistance of a citizen's advisory committee, "Alaska at War" serves as a vital record of local experiences and contributions during a global conflict. It was publicly premiered on Alaska Day, October 18, 1986, marking its significance to the state's historical narrative.

Collectors interested in World War II documentaries or Alaska's history will find this film to be an important addition to their library. Its unique focus on Alaska's role in the war offers insights that are not commonly covered in mainstream historical accounts.
