ABOUT THE FILM

In 1919, a military convoy journeyed from the White House to San Francisco with a 28-year-old Lt. Col. Dwight D. Eisenhower that would change America forever. The documentary details the convoy's struggles and explores the expedition's lasting effect on the nation, highlighting its role in shaping America's interstate highway infrastructure and its (un)intended consequences for communities.
