The original release sheet reads:

 This week, THE BIG PICTURE cameras move from the USSTRICOM War Room at McDill Air Force Base Florida halfway around the world on a typical STRIKE mission...to stop a simulated brushfire war before it can spread. Airborne troopers from Ft. Bragg, North Carolina and Air Force fighters, tankers, and troop carriers from airfields all over the U.S. form a swiftly moving "Fire Brigade."
 This is "Strike Command," able to move in hours to any trouble spot on the globe....Army and Air Force under a single command ready to show our flag and stop an aggressor.
