Canyon of Heroes

Highlights of the Gulf War in classic newsreel style preface the stirring chronicle of the greatest homecoming since World War II. "Operation Welcome Home". On June 10, 1991 America and the World paid tribute, with flags and yellow ribbons flying and a tickertape storm that drew the largest crowd in history, to the men and women who served in the Gulf and to all veterans called to arms this century. Includes the solemn ceremonies. It shows uniformed and civilian principals gathering with the ranks to give thanks for victory, to memorialize fallen comrades, and to reflect on the ideals of peace for which all sacrificed and many gave their lives.
