Summary
It is important for an army to be mobile - the greater the mobility of an army, the greater its power to fight an aggressor. This episode of the U.S. Army's The Big Picture television series follows how the army improves and maintains the way it moves on land, in the sea, and in the air. Also shown in this video from the National Archives and Records Administration is the constant research that works to find new and better ways of keeping ahead of any potential enemies.
