PBS 45 & 49's Act of Duty talks with more than a dozen northeast Ohio men and women who share their first-hand experience of battle and how it has shaped their lives. This enlightening look into the lives of U.S. veterans is shared against a backdrop of footage featuring scenes of war, airplanes, naval vessels, veterans' cemeteries and newspaper headlines.
The one-hour program is structured in four segments: Segment 1 covers who is a veteran, the Civil War and Decoration Day (now called Memorial Day); Segment 2 starts with World War I and includes information about the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and Armistice Day, the predecessor of Veterans Day; Segment 3 covers World War II and Korea; and Segment 4 covers Vietnam and the Gulf War.
