The Snapshots in Time Collection
Mountain Trail with Pack Caravan, Kashmir, India, WWII Era
A wooded mountain trail in Kashmir, photographed by an American serviceman stationed in the China-Burma-India Theater during World War II. Pack animals and local guides descend the path past terraced hillsides typical of the region. Many CBI personnel passed through Kashmir while on leave or in transit, and scenic images like this one were popular keepsakes of the theater's dramatic landscapes. Project: 218049
