For two centuries he has been in the bulwark of our country's defense. From the hardships at Valley Forge, to the 38th Parallel of Korea, the Infantryman has been a fighter--a frontrunner--a man of courage unafraid to meet the enemy head-on, face-to-face in hand to hand combat. At the Infantry School at Fort Benning, Georgia, the Infantryman is trained to be resourceful, aggressive and self-reliant. In this issue of THE BIG PICTURE, viewers will get a penetrating look at the making of an Infantryman as he learns what it takes to earn the right to that proud battle cry--I AM THE INFANTRY!
