National Archives and Records Administration ARC Identifier 2569826 / Local Identifier 111-TV-614 Big Picture: Battalion Commander 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). A Battalion Commander holds one of the most responsible and respected jobs in the Army--representing, in his single experience, a career of national service and Army leadership. Under his command are hundreds of men, machines and weapons - forged together into a thunderbolt representing many thousands of dollars in the nation's investment in military security. This week, THE BIG PICTURE focuses on crowded days in the life of the commander of an armored battalion in West Germany, where United States and NATO forces serve in the forward lines of the free world's defenses.
