This national treasure, nestled against the Rampart Range near Colorado Springs, is more than a military academy. It was designed as a national monument to the future and the site for training the leaders of our newest armed service. It was intended as a place of vision, where young men, and later women, would be educated, trained and inspired to lead our forces in the air and into space.  

 

Produced for the national public broadcasting system in High Definition television and Dolby 5.1 surround sound, this carefully conceived program will feature cadets, faculty, civilians, and those who were actually involved in the Academy's development to tell the story of its first 50 years.
