Military men in trucks and you can see bombs going off in the back hills. Soldiers walking down the road with weapons carried on their shoulders. Soldiers sitting in a ditch sharing sea rations (canned food). Military truck with machine guns mounted on its bed with two soldiers ready for action. Smoke from an exploding bomb. Soldiers sleeping catching 40 winks on top of their weapons. Soldiers loading and firing their 3.5 Super-Bazookas. MCU of a young soldier holding his riffle. More shots of soldiers fighting in a battle firing their weapons. Aerial shots of weapons being fired and the light as the bullets or bombs explode on buildings and bridges. The North Koreans fighting back CU of weapons, protective facial mask to protect the soldiers and his eyes from fire. A view from a bazooka scope looking at the target, a tank, that gets blown up. The M-20 rocket launcher is a very formidable weapon making it possible for the foot soldier to attack and defeat. | |
