The Big Picture Supply Mission

Electronic brain solves engineer supply problems -- In the opening moments of this THE BIG PICTURE, combat engineers are seen building roads in Burma and air strips in North Africa, and relieving flood victims and communities in times of disaster. In war and in peace, wherever America can use their services the United States Army Engineers are "Standing by -- ready when needed." In this issue of THE BIG PICTURE audiences are introduced to the men and women whose job it is to provide combat engineers in the field with the equipment they need when they need it. As the camera goes behind the scenes in the Corps of Engineers, viewers will meet, among other things, an electronic brain that answers questions.
