Amazingly enough, if you read many of packages they will state, you may not reproduce/use any of the footage. How this can be is beyond me, if it's simply archived footage from army, etc. How anyone can claim a copyright on that material is beyond me?!
Now if someone takes archived footage and drops a narrative over, etc., I can see why you can't take THEIR production and recreate it, without permission, etc. However, if you are simply taking a clip of the silent, archived footage, then...
It can be very tricky and you have to be very careful.
