The Snapshots in Time Collection
Gallery: New Folder (2)
Drawn from the personal photographs of veteran Joe Vieira, this collection follows American servicemen through the China-Burma-India and Pacific theaters of World War II, from unit formations and studio keepsake portraits to barracks life, jeeps on hillside tracks, and aircraft wreckage. Taken by soldiers for themselves, these candid snapshots preserve the ordinary hours that official photography rarely recorded.
