Thank you for this view of the 1950-1953 Korean War era. A view of my childhood. It was also the 1945-1960 end of the Railroad Era, when steam and diesel were mixed. It is poignant to see the propaganda for the first unconstitutional war-in a series up to our own time- sending young Americans to oblivion.

Gad, this film is so frantically unnerved. Just goes to show how pervasive the Mccarthyite mindset was in the early 50s. Keep in mind that the U.S. Congress never declared war on N. Korea, hence this was our first unconstitutional war, with many to follow.

I'm assuming this was during WW2. Excellent color film.

It was made during the Korean War, so sometime between 1950 and 1953.
