Description
Summary:From the U.S. Army's The Big Picture television series, 1950-1975. "Depicts the position and responsibility of the United States Army in the nation's defense establishment. Should another war be forced upon this country, no matter how big the hydrogen bomb, no matter how many guided missiles are launched, the final winning of the war will still be the dirty business of soldier killing soldier. This is the theme of "Role of the Army." This era in which we live, burgeoning with new mighty weapons, does not mark any decline in the value of ground troops, nor does it raise any doubt that in a future war, the final decision will lie in the hands of the Army."--National Archives and Records Administration.
