    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[The Case of the Tremendous Trifle]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Addressed to "the men and women of American industry," the film tells the story of the Allies' targeting a strategic site for bombing in order to halt German industrial production. Introduced as the story of, "One of the thousands of unsung trifles that go into the making of our fighting weapons […] This the biography of one of those fragments, the life and death of a small steel ball." Dramatizations depict the strategic planning and intelligence gathering leading up to the bombing of the ball bearing manufacturers in Schweinfurt, Germany. In the U.S. a refugee of the concentration camps is contributes his knowledge of German industry. In the U.K. a captured German officer who formerly was a salesman for the bearing manufacturers is interrogated. Use of photo reconnaissance and spying is shown to aid in preparation for a precision bombing mission. Actual footage of preparations and execution of daytime bombing raids and combat illustrate the Schweinfurt mission. Concludes with assertions that recent Allied successes in battle could be attributed to the destruction of the bearing factories. Final narration addresses workers in the U.S. suggesting that the small "trifles" that make up industrial production will win the war for the Allies.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[They Deliver the Goods]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[This film depicts the details of the workflow in supply chain that routes wartime provisions and weaponry to soldiers in the South Pacific, and encourages civilians to do their part in facilitating production.  &quot;How our fighting equipment gets through to our fighting men in quantity and on time. The mountains of supplies for combat loaded at ports of embarkation are unloaded under combat conditions and under fire in the South Pacific. From behind-the-lines General Supply Depots they are moved through jungle swamps to advance bases, to the firing lines. The never-ending battle of supply is graphically told in these pictures.&quot; (Supplement to Visual Aids Catalog, Indiana University Extension Division, May 1945, 15)]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[The Negro Soldier]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Intended to combat racial discrimination in the armed forces, &quot;The Negro Soldier&quot; traces the role of African Americans in war from the American Revolutionary War through World War II.  This film, written and starred in by Carlton Moss and produced by Frank Capra, has since been added to the National Film Registry of the Library of Congress.  The Registry noted that the film is culturally and historically significant because it &quot;showcased the contributions of blacks to American society and their heroism in the nation’s wars, portraying them in a dignified, realistic, and far less stereotypical manner than they had been depicted in previous Hollywood films.&quot;  Like Capra&#039;s other U.S. propaganda films, &quot;The Negro Soldier&quot; was required viewing for all soldiers. ]]></dcterms:description>
