The Snapshots in Time Collection
Pin-Up Style Portrait of a Woman Reclining in a Military Tent, China-Burma-India Theater, World War II Era
Found within a China-Burma-India theater photo collection, this informal pin-up style portrait shows a young woman posed on a cot inside a military tent -- a genre of morale and keepsake photography popular among servicemen stationed in remote overseas theaters during World War II. Such images, often of USO performers or camp visitors, provided a welcome personal touch amid the hardships of the CBI campaign. Project: 218078
