| Summary: | From the U.S. Army's The Big Picture television series, 1950-1975. "Deep in the heart of the Alaskan wilderness, a picked group of soldiers climbs the rugged peaks and glaciers of the far north. These are soldiers of the United States Army attending a unique school, a tough, rough, demanding school specializing in equipping troops to live and fight under Arctic conditions. This week's episode joins a class of volunteers at the U.S. Army Cold Weather and Mountain School. Travel along with us as these soldiers learn mountaineering, rope bridge construction, and other skills in one of the world's most hostile environments."--National Archives and Records Administration. |
