10th Army Photo Album Page - Okinawa, 1945: Living Quarters, Soldiers, and Okinawan Tomb

A page from a soldier's personal photo album documents daily life during the U.S. Army's occupation of Okinawa in 1945. Images show tent quarters of the 10th Army, off-duty soldiers relaxing outdoors, and a visit to a traditional Okinawan burial tomb - offering an intimate, informal counterpoint to official combat photography of the Pacific campaign.
