Ground crewmen service a camouflaged twin-engine transport aircraft, its rounded profile and disruptive paint scheme characteristic of the Curtiss C-46 Commandos flown by Air Transport Command over the China-Burma-India Theater. From 1942 to 1945, C-46s braved the treacherous 'Hump' route across the Himalayas to keep Allied forces in China supplied, relying on ground crews like these to maintain aircraft under primitive field conditions.
