With US astronauts on the Moon, the US Army decided it needed to explain it's role in the fantastic achievement. So, this interesting though rather dry documentary was made to highlight the US Army's role in space exploration and underwater salvage operations.
With a slightly quirky and jaunty soundtrack, various rockets and missiles are shown as well as special facilities built by the Army for developing things like the astronauts' spacesuits. Interesting archive footage of exciting times. It is literally out of this world though the film is ironically a bit pedestrian.
