A documentary of the famous "Indianheads," the men of the U.S. 2nd Infantry Division and the vital role they played in Korea. Although the fighting in Korea is over, the deeds of the 2nd Infantry Division will long be remembered. Out of the struggle in Korea have come many accounts of great suffering and even greater heroism, but few of them can match the story as told in this BIG PICTURE program. Through careful editing and with emphasis on "close-ups" of the men themselves, this outstanding documentary seems to tell the personal story of the soldiers of the Indianhead Division who lived up to their proud motto -- "Second to None.

The story of the Army truck, rarely thought of as a weapon. But in a very real sense it is. In "Many Roads to Glory" we see just how large a role the Army truck has played in preserving the freedom of the United States in the twentieth century. Few people would argue that the Army truck is as powerful as an atom bomb, or as swift as a guided missile, but today, as in the past, the truck remains the workhorse of the Army. It is a lifesaver in time of civil disaster, and is always ready to move our fighting men, and to supply them with the tools for attack or with the weapons of defense, at home and overseas.

On the front line--in the heat of battle--no one stopped to ask whether a man was a "Regular," "a Guardsman," or a "Reservist." Yet, this unity was never achieved until after the battle began.

On the front line--in the heat of battle--no one stopped to ask whether a man was a "Regular," "a Guardsman," or a "Reservist." Yet, this unity was never achieved until after the battle began. Unfortunately, however, each time a wartime Army was demobilized following victory, its soldiers tended once more to think of themselves as Regulars, or National Guardsmen, or Reservists, rather than simply as soldiers of the United States Army. As brought forth in this documentary film, today all the Army's components have essential, indispensable roles all the time. No component can perform its mission without the support and cooperation of the other two.
