This is a really outstanding 35 minute, full colour, movie of the construction of the Alaska Highway - one of the great feats of WW2. Apart from wonderful close shots of engineers' machinery working, there is an endless parade of "spot that truck"

Hi Lang

That film was worth posting, another piece of history, I really enjoyed the film. I wonder if there is a similar film made of the construction of the road from Alice Springs to Darwin by USA troops during WW2.

Cheers
