A lighthearted moment captured between an American serviceman and a young woman during the China-Burma-India campaign of World War II. The man's China-Burma-India theater patch, worn on his leather flight jacket, places this photograph at a forward base such as Myitkyina, Burma, likely following its capture by Allied forces in 1944. Snapshots like this one, taken far from the front lines, reveal the social life and morale-building moments that punctuated the demanding CBI theater of operations. Project: 218043
