The Big Picture U.S. Army TV Series / TV 194 "Citizen, Soldier and Taxpayer, Too"

National Archives and Records Administration / ARC Identifier 2569464 / Local Identifier 111-TV-194 / Big Picture: Citizen, Soldier and Taxpayer, Too / DVD copied by Timothy Vollmer. 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). Again, former Army Secretary Frank Pace, Jr. is the guest of THE BIG PICTURE to introduce a program of interest to every taxpayer. It's the story of the war the Army fights all the time -- the war against waste. Our cameras go to Japan for Operation Rollup, showing how we supply our troops with rehabilitated (but efficient) equipment and thereby save the taxpayer millions of dollars. We see how our troops are encouraged to be 'cost conscious' about their tools of warfare. It takes dollars to build and maintain an effective fighting machine, but the Army is making a continual effort to keep that cost to a minimum. The soldier; who is a taxpayer too, knows the cost of our defense effort.
