A group of Vietnamese children is shown in close proximity to a U.S. soldier wearing a helmet, with the children appearing engaged and the soldier interacting with them. The transcript mentions American soldiers establishing rapport with children abroad, and includes counting and calls of 'Airborne!' suggesting a playful or training activity.
“But beyond endeavoring to know and understand the Vietnamese,” 16:38 · “There is much more we can do.” 16:42 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.
