Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: solemn; themes: military service, peace after war, memorialization; style notes: medium close-up, studio lighting, static camera, black-and-white film

A man in a U.S. Army uniform is seated indoors, speaking about the end of hostilities and the cessation of military burials in Korea. The transcript references the truce and white crosses in Korean cemeteries.

“Yes, the free world was happy to see the truce concluded.” 24:25 · “The need ended for more white crosses.” 24:28 automatic transcript, may be wrong

The record

US Government work The record names a federal body as the creating agency. A work prepared by an officer or employee of the United States Government as part of that person's official duties has no US copyright (17 U.S.C. 105; before 1978, section 8 of the 1909 Act). This says nothing about copyright outside the United States, or about music, stock footage or other material the film may incorporate. Evidence dossier. The finding concerns the US copyright record for the film; it is not clearance for any use, and this page's annotation is machine output.
