US Servicemen Handling Aerial Camera Equipment, CBI Theater, Burma, WWII
American servicemen handle large-format aerial camera equipment at a truck tailgate during the Burma campaign of World War II. The stenciled instruction "Remove Dark Slide" identifies this as a film magazine for an aerial reconnaissance or mapping camera, reflecting the vital role of photographic intelligence in the China-Burma-India Theater.
