Aerial Reconnaissance Photograph of River Bend and Settlement, China-Burma-India Theater, WWII (Japanese-Captured Recon Negative)
A weathered aerial reconnaissance photograph from the China-Burma-India theater of World War II, part of a set of Japanese-captured recon images. Photographs like this one were used by military intelligence to study terrain, settlements, and lines of communication, despite the ravages of time now obscuring much of the original detail.
