Description
Summary:Experience the American Journey through our country's visual heritage in this historical recording provided by the National Archives of the United States. From the U.S. Army's 'The Big Picture' television series, 1950-1975. In swiftly moving scenes when the hands of the clock are stopped at 'fifteen forty-five hours' (which is military language for 3:45 p.m), viewers will learn the truth of the statement: 'The sun never sets on the American soldier.' Over the wide stretches of the world, somewhere at some time, day and night, men and women of the United States Army are performing their duties to this country. Not only at 'fifteen forty-five,' but every minute of the day, every day of the week, every week of the year...ever-vigilant in the defense of the free world.
