Hanford: Part 3 of War Construction in the Desert.

This was a silent video about the development of the Hanford Site in Washington state, which appears to have been produced by the U.S. government at or near the end of World War II. This is part three of three; all three comprise about a 90 minute presentation.

Apparently it was shown at a public presentation in the Richland / Kennewick / Pasco area, with local historians and experts speaking to provide context. This video combines a copy of the original silent film (held at Washington State University's Tri-Cities campus) with audio from film of that 1990s presentation (held at the WSU Libraries' Manuscripts, Archives, and Special Collections in Pullman).

The original silent film ends about 9 minutes before the public presentation does. As a result, the last nine minutes show the movie as filmed by an audience member in that crowd.
