Watch The Big Picture - Follow Me

Experience the American Journey through our country's visual heritage in this historical recording provided by the National Archives of the United States. From the U.S. Army's "The Big Picture" television series, 1950-1975. Home of the "Queen of Battle," Fort Benning, Georgia, brings us the story of how we keep our infantrymen highly trained with the most weapons available. We hear from Korean and WW II veterans with the "know how" and are now training the new arrivals. We have a look at the Ranger training where every man is a specialist in every type of Army weapon. This is a simple story but one with a punch.
