Alabama Civil Rights Story - African American Students Enroll As Governor Yields
The University of Alabama campus is under tight security guard as Governor George Wallace confronts a deputy U.S. attorney. The Federal officers are armed with a proclamation urging the Governor to end his efforts to prevent two black students from registering. He stands firm and President John F. Kennedy federalizes the National Guard. When they move in, the Governor bows to Presidential authority and James Hood and Vivian Malone become the first two black students to be registered at the University. That night President John F. Kennedy speaks to the Nation, saying the United States is facing a moral crisis and that it is the duty of all to uphold the rule of law.
French President Charles DeGaulle Observes Air Show
France opens her 25th annual air show by unveiling some radical futuristic aircraft. President Charles De Gaulle sees a plane that flies with super-sonic speed and then stands still in midair as well as a demonstration of the U.S. one-man jet pack that can lift a soldier over rugged terrain.
Yesterdays Big Story - WWII D-Day Invasion
June 6, 1944 and the greatest armada in military history is assembled in England for an assault on Hitler’s Fortress Europe. For this long awaited D-Day the Allies have assembled 12,000 planes to protect a surface force of 4,000 ships. Supreme Commander Dwight D. Eisenhower has nearly 3,000,000 men trained for the assault. Combat cameramen made a great pictorial record of this day – a day that changed the course of history.
