Colonial-Style Wooden Building, Vicinity of Myitkyina, Burma, WWII China-Burma-India Collection
A wooden colonial-era building photographed in the vicinity of Myitkyina, Burma, during World War II. Myitkyina and its surrounding towns were the focus of an arduous Allied campaign in 1944 to reopen the overland supply route to China, and images like this one document the built environment American and Allied personnel encountered in the region.
