The Big Picture. Fifteen Forty-Five Hours
Description
In this classic episode of the U.S. Army's The Big Picture television series, the hands of the clock are stopped at "fifteen forty-five hours" (which is military language for 3:45 p.m.), and viewers will learn the truth of the statement, "The sun never sets on the American soldier." Over the wide stretches of the world, somewhere at some time, day and night, men and women of the United States Army are performing their duties to this country. This video from the National Archives and Records Administration shows how the U.S. Army is ever vigilant in the defense of the free world.
