Master 1848 - Tape 1 MS white male British Army soldiers setting up floating pass bridge on river in Korea-- note the soldiers wear winter parkas and arctic caps with ear flaps. MS two sopping-wet British Army soldiers walking with grimaces past camera. MS British soldier sitting on floating bridge, shaking water from winter pants, leg raised into air. Shaky LS soldiers marching along path cutting through snowy foothills. TLS/MSs U.S. Army soldiers driving military Jeeps-- some armed with heavy machine guns-- along muddy, snow-dotted roads at base camp. Panning MS U.S. soldiers driving Jeep in reverse through snow, over bumps. VO: "The job is wet but quick and successful. Wet too are the roads. Spring rains are reaching their peak. As mud reduces U.N. mobility, a communist offensive is expected momentarily."
