Big Picture: The Changed Face of Europe

Department of Defense. Department of the Army. Office of the Deputy Chief of Staff for Operations. U.S. Army Audiovisual Center. (ca. 1974 - 05/15/1984). Two decades ago, the brutal war in Europe had spilled the blood of many nationalities. Europe's postwar agony had been compounded by centuries of neglect. In the unrest and chaos, Communism saw its greatest chance, and the years of Stalinist expansion began. But for war-torn Europe, these were also the years of the Marshall Plan, a humanitarian gesture which took no regard for politics. The face of Europe has been transformed to one of despair among the Communist satellites and of unprecedented prosperity among the free nations. This is the dramatic story of "The Changed Face of Europe."
