Also, the 14th, 5th, 7th, and 13th Air Forces reduce enemy pacific strongholds close to the Philippines. Leyte and Luzon fall, and Corregidor again is in Allied hands. The United States Air Force produced a series of 34 films, roughly 14 minutes each, between 1947 and 1960 to help educated the public about the role of the Air Force. The goals of the films are best described by the introduction displayed at the start of each movie as follows: "It is the job of all the people to know and understand what the airman has done and is doing today... For only with fill public knowledge and understanding can we have the support we need to carry out our mission. It is a big mission and an important one. It involves the future well-being of every American - the peace of the world. Sincerely, Your Air Force" Motion picture films don't last forever; many have already been lost or destroyed.
