UNITED STATES

Made by the British Army Film Unit for the purpose of presenting their ally, the USA, to the armed forces of Britain. This is a companion film to the American Army film, KNOW YOUR ALLY, BRITAIN. Traces the history of the United States from the earliest pilgrim settlement at Plymouth Rock, to the present day maturity of 130 million people. Shows the traditions and characteristics of these Americans, the untold wealth and resources of their country, and through these scenes shows that it was inevitable that the United States should become a foremost world power. "Gives broad survey of the United States. The introductory theme may need explanation at elementary level." Collaborator. "War emphasis will probably date this film. 'Too Collier'. Reviewer. 'Excellent, technically good. Fair presentation of historical facts, interesting theme.' Reviewer"
