Panoramas and detail crops record the motor pool and encampment of Battery "C," 4th Field Artillery Battalion in Manila during 1946, its trucks, buses, and vehicle sheds set against a skyline still broken by the 1945 Battle of Manila. Creased and fragmentary prints among them testify to both the fragility and the enduring value of wartime photographic archives.
