The project was conceived by Henry Salomon, who, while a U. S. Navy Lieutenant Commander during World War II, was a research assistant to historian Samuel Eliot Morison.
During this period, Salomon learned of the large amounts of film that the warring navies had compiled.
Salomon left the Navy in 1948 and eventually discussed his idea of a documentary series with one of his Harvard classmates, Robert Sarnoff, a rising executive at NBC television and the son of David Sarnoff, the chairman of RCA ( then the owner of NBC ).
