The Snapshots in Time Collection
Gallery: NO LABEL 2
Personal snapshots of American servicemen in the China-Burma-India Theater capture life between missions: portraits in aircrew wings and CBI patches, laundry washed in a jungle river, letters written beneath mosquito netting. Taken on private cameras rather than for official record, these images preserve the everyday texture of a distant, demanding war.
