Tree-Lined Estate Road Through a Tea Garden, Dinjan Area, Assam, India, WWII Era
A tree-lined access road winds through a tea estate near Dinjan, Assam — a region of northeastern India that, beyond its famous tea gardens, became a critical U.S. Army Air Forces staging base during World War II for the aerial resupply of China over the Himalayas, known as flying 'The Hump.' This quiet agricultural scene reflects the everyday landscape encountered by Allied servicemen stationed in the region. Project: 218053
