The Snapshots in Time Collection
Gallery: Part 10
A veteran's personal archive of the China-Burma-India Theater, brought together here in overview views of documents and photographs alongside the records themselves: Air Medal citations for photographic reconnaissance missions, declassified special orders routing airmen to Karachi, and a handwritten roster naming the men in a unit photograph. Flight line scenes and aerial strike frames complete a firsthand account of one of the war's most demanding theaters.
