From "The Big Picture" documentary series. In this episode, we take a look at the US Army soldiers forward-stationed in Western Europe...taking guard along the Iron Curtain

For what it's worth, I think this is great stuff. I hadn't seen this one before! Remembering growing up in the 70's and 80's, this adds to the story. Seriously, I am glad I found this channel. Thanks for uploading all the great content, Mr. Guardia!

As a Retired military veteran of which served during the cold war, I say President Kennedy had it right and hit the nail right square on the head. I'm also like president Kennedy in the fact that as he said (even though he was referring just to Berlin at the time), I refer to all communist and dictatorial run countries. - There are lots of people even now-a-days who say or claim they don’t know or understand what the great issue is between living in the Free World and living in either the Communist World or in a dictatorship country run by a dictator. - Then.... Let them live in a communist country under communist rule, or live in a dictatorship country run by a dictator for a while and they will unmistakenly find out for themselves the hard way of what the great issue is. - LET FREEDOM RING !
