In 1942, Warner Bros. made a two-reeler called DIVIDE AND CONQUER. It was basically the same subject matter as the Capra documentary but featured Hollywood actors in addition to captured footage. Here is a youtube of the 1942 short subject: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-TVAl_lhUM

BTW - the War Dept distribution tag at the beginning of the short is only for that individual print. The film was, in fact, distributed theatrically by Warner Bros. 16mm prints were sent to service installations.
