1962 - 1963
GEN Herb Powell, the GEN at the end of the film, retired in 1963 as CDR CONARC (Continental Army Command which became FORSCOM in 1973).
BG Yarborough (speaking before GEN Powell) was a COL in 1961 and was CDR US Army Special Warfare Center 1961-1965.
The 7th SFGA was authorized their berets with red flash as seen in the film after October 1961.
My three favorite Saturday morning television programs were 'The Big Picture', 'The Twentieth Century', and 'Victory At Sea'.
