    <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:description><![CDATA[&quot;War on Wheels&quot; is described as a confidential industrial film bulletin from Secretary of War Robert P. Patterson to the those involved in the production of tanks.  &quot;Directed principally to the men and women of automotive industries to show them the combat performance of the vehicles they have built. What it took to get a mechanized convoy through in the North African campaign serves as an illustration.&quot;  (Supplement to Visual Aids Catalog, Indiana University Extension Division, 16).  Portrays an American truck convoy ambushed by German tanks and rescued by group of United States medium tanks.  Compares the mechanized strengths of the Axis powers versus those of the United States.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[<p><span>This film focuses on the many aspects of the wartime production and supply dissemination "chain", from creating goods to navigating the dangerous delivery of shipments. "A Nazi submarine 'wolf pack' racing to intercept a convoy carrying urgently needed supplies - and the race against time by those who handle these supplies and load the convoy - furnish the dramatic elements in this film. The picture brings out the importance of the many jobs, both big and small, performed by men and women who are vital links in the life line to the front and whose war work has received little publicity or praise."
