| Summary: | From the U.S. Army's The Big Picture television series, 1950-1975. "The Army on horseback that once was the United States Cavalry is no more, for our Army today is a mechanized force. But "cavalry" is a proud word in military terminology and no one displays that pride more than the men of the 1st Cavalry Division. They call themselves "troopers," like their tough forbears who, a century ago, rode against the Indian tribes of the west. Today, these men of the division (sometimes called "the first team") keep alive the cavalry's legendary tradition of bravery by fighting, when they are called upon to fight, with courage and an indomitable will to win. THE BIG PICTURE brings to the screen the story of the 1st Cavalry Division in Korea; a story as illustrious as any in the cavalry's magnificent history."--National Archives and Records Administration. |
