On September 13, the Emmy Award-winning "CBS News Sunday Morning" aired a cover story focusing on the missile crisis and the state of America's military arsenal. The program highlighted the ongoing conflict with Iran, which has lasted over six months and shows no sign of resolution. In the early stages of the war, the United States launched thousands of long-range, precision-guided missiles. Now, with its stockpiles of high-tech weapons nearly depleted, the Pentagon is preparing for a potential conflict with a major military power like China. To address this, the defense industry has been placed on a "wartime footing," meaning it is operating at maximum capacity to produce new weapons. This effort will require billions of dollars and years of manufacturing. CBS News national security correspondent David Martin visited several factories now ramping up production to rebuild America's military capabilities. The program also featured an interview with oceanographer Robert Ballard, famous for discovering the wreck of the RMS Titanic in 1985. He shared how this discovery, located 12,000 feet beneath the Atlantic, changed his perspective and discussed the work of his research vessel, the Nautilus, which is mapping the ocean floor. Correspondent Lee Cowan also spoke with Sophie Elmhirst, author of the bestseller "A Marriage at Sea: A True Story of Love, Obsession, and Shipwreck," about the human condition in extreme circumstances. In the sports segment, the program highlighted the debut of the Women's Pro Baseball League last month. Correspondent Faith Salie spoke with several key figures in the league, including #1 draft pick Kelsie Whitmore, catcher Maggie Foxx, commissioner Justine Siegal, and CEO Keith Stein, about the significance of the league for women and the future of sports. The program also covered a Holocaust survival story uncovered by an oral history project led by former schoolteacher Matthew Rozell. This project has uncovered lesser-known stories from World War II, including the liberation by American troops of 2,500 Holocaust survivors from a "death train" in April 1945. Correspondent Seth Doane spoke with Rozell, historian James Bulgin, and filmmaker Mike Edwards about preserving the memories of WWII veterans and the importance of learning from the past. In a fashion segment, Diane von Furstenberg discussed her life journey, which she calls a miracle, thanks to her mother who survived the Holocaust. The program also examined the ethical boundaries of surrogacy in the U.S., with correspondent Katrina Kaufman exploring troubling practices reported by some surrogates in the rapidly growing industry. The program included a segment on monarch caterpillars in New York and a visit to Morton, Illinois, home to the annual Pumpkin Festival and the Libby's factory, responsible for 85 percent of the world's canned pumpkin. The episode also announced a new series of live events at the 92nd Street Y in New York City, debuting with Sylvester Stallone. Additional web exclusives featured content from the archives, including Jay Maisel's photographs of the Twin Towers and a look at how a New Jersey town was affected by 9/11. The program also honored the recent passing of Gloria Steinem and Cassandra Wilson.
