This episode in the Big Picture series features the departure of American troops from the Far East as a major change in U.S. Cold War strategy. In the post-war years, American instructors helped train Japanese police reserves. Featuring footage provided by the National Archives and Records Administration, this documentary details how the U.S. guided a new Japanese military organization to undertake national defense responsibilities. By helping Japan defend itself, the West helped address the Soviet threats in the Pacific.
