National Archives and Records Administration ARC Identifier 2569642 / Local Identifier 111-TV-374 Big Picture: Provide for the Common Defense DVD Copied by Katie Filbert - 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). Through civilian eyes "THE BIG PICTURE" examines the Department of Defense -- THE BIG PICTURE cameras follow a nine-day tour of representative American citizens of Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps Bases in this half-hour episode of the Army's weekly television series. This tour -- more often referred to as the Joint Civilian Orientation Conference -- is designed to acquaint the American public, through representative citizens, with the problems, workings and accomplishments of the Defense Department. It shows how and why defense dollars are well spent. During the past ten years, more than 1,500 Americans have been given an inside look at the Defense Department through the J.C.O.C. Program. Now THE BIG PICTURE brings this same view to its 30 million viewers.
