Official Corps of Engineer film showing the laying of pierced steel plank (PSP) runway by the 21st Engineer Regiment (Avn) during the 1941 war maneuvers. PSP was used extensively during WWII to quickly lay airfields. PSP is sometimes called Marston Mat after the place in NC where it was first tested. http://bit.ly/psp-fact
