Can anyone identify a TV show where one episode dealt with a man whose father died in WWII?

This one goes a long way back, maybe 1970's.

The adult son was fooling with a radio and somehow got in communication with ships (or subs?) from WWII. He was able to
prevent his father dying in the war.

Only thing was, when they came back to the present, the US was occupied by the Germans.

1. Sounds like something Twilight Zone or Outer Limits would do n/t

I think this is what you're looking for. Good film by the way.

3. The story line is quite similar to it, but what I saw was older than that.

Sounds like an interesting movie, though. I'll have to look into it.

7. It's a fun movie. You should definitely check it out.

There's a scene where the son asks his dad to somehow deliver an object to him, so that he can run fingerprints on it 30 years in the future. His dad hides it behind a floorboard in the house, so that no one will ever mess with it over the intervening decades. The son reaches back behind the floorboards, and there it is!

One of the better "time travel" movies out there, in my opinion.
