Description
Summary:From the U.S. Army's The Big Picture television series, 1950-1975.
"This episode examines the vitally strategic importance of the Far North. Traveling pictorially from Alaska to the Northwest - across the vast reaches of Canada - and Greenland in the east, it traces the hemispheric defense and terrain which stretches unbroken by national boundaries across 'The Top of the World.'"--National Archives and Records Administration.
