DVD Copied by Thomas Gideon - Department of Defense. Department of the Army. Office of the Deputy Chief of Staff for Operations. U.S. Army Audiovisual Center. (ca. 1974 - 05/15/1984). Recently, a potent new addition to the U.S. Army's arsenal of ground-to-ground missiles became operational. Its name: the Pershing. The proving of a reliable, long-range ballistic missile involves months of preparation - moments of tension and drama - obstacles both technical and human which must be overcome. This week's THE BIG PICTURE documents all of these, in telling the story of how "Pershing Joins the Ranks."
