The Big Picture 270 Battlefields of Yesterday

1954 The Big Picture episode #270 “Battlefields of Yesterday.”
“The original release sheet reads: Ten years ago, soldiers of the United States Army were fighting all over the world, the hottest war history has seen. Today soldiers are on the alert, everywhere, to try to prevent this ever happening again. In this film, THE BIG PICTURE camera contrasts today and yesterday on the battlefields of Europe. Traveling from the beaches of Normandy, across France, and finally deep into the heart of Germany, Signal Corps cameramen photograph the cliffs and hedgerow, the forests and rivers, and contrast the street fighting with the quiet rebuilding of the cities of Germany.”
