| Summary: | From the U.S. Army's The Big Picture television series, 1950-1975. "Skydiving ... a leap from two miles up ... a descent at 120 miles an hour ... this is routine for members of the U.S. Army Parachute Team--champions in competition and combat. In this episode, through an unusual helmet camera technique, U.S. Army skydivers demonstrate daring, free-fall skills which have thrilled international audiences. This 30-minute documentary film is a tribute to an elite corps of paratroops and their contribution to military airborne techniques."--National Archives and Records Administration. |
