Special Forces | Rare U.S. Army Green Beret Film

This is from the early 1960's and Henry Fonda is the moderator.  After you get past the somewhat hokey music and recreations of events, I think this is interesting from a couple of perspectives.  First is that this was a film made not only for the Army but to inform the American people as it says in the opening remarks.  Second, is the description of the global strategic situation at that time.  It is an interesting comparison to the world today.   I use the first 6:25 minutes in my class on unconventional warfare and special operations for policy makers and strategists.
