An Iranian soldier with a 9M14 Malyutka (AT-3 Sagger) ATGM. Large numbers of such missiles were deployed by Iranian military starting in 1982. Some were captured from Iraqi stocks, while others were imported via Syria and Libya.

The Malyutka is a wire guided missile with a relatively simple design. The HEAT warhead is located in the front and has an impact fuze. Most of the body consists of the solid propellant rocket motor. Two exhaust nozzles are fitted in the middle of the body since the wire reel and control section for the four folding wings are located at the end. The Malyutka is effective against most early Cold War era tanks and used extensively during the Iran-Iraq War.

This newsreel shows a Mitsubishi A6M2 type 22 Zero fighter flying under American colours. The Zero was discovered perfectly intact after it made a crash landing in Aleutian Islands off the coast of Alaska in 1942.

The A6M2 DI- 108 from the carrier Ryujo was flown by Flight petty officer Tadayoshi Koga.His fighter was hit by ground-based anti-aircraft fire. Losing oil, Flight Petty Officer Tadayoshi Koga attempted an emergency landing on Akutan Island, about 20 miles (32 km) northeast of Dutch Harbor, but his Zero flipped over on soft ground in a sudden crash-landing. Koga died instantly of head injuries (his neck was broken by the tremendous impact).

The relatively undamaged fighter was found over a month later by an American salvage team and was shipped to Naval Air Station North Island, where testing flights of the repaired A6M revealed both strengths and deficiencies in design and performance.

A U.S.Navy river patrol boat continues underway as it calls in a Huskie rescue helicopter on the Bassac river near Can tho, in the Mekong delta. The helicopter drops a wire stretcher and flies a short distance away to wait while the injured man is made ready for the lift. The boat continues down river at a speed of more than 15 knots. The helicopter, returning and flying at the same speed as the boat, lowers a line for the lift, hoists the iniured man aboard and flies him to the nearest medical facility.

During the Vietnam War, the HH-43 flew more rescue missions than all other rotorcraft combined, largely due to its unique hovering capability; between 1966 and 1970, the type performed a total of 888 combat rescue, comprising 343 aircrew rescues and 545 non-aircrew rescues.
