The Snapshots in Time Collection
Gallery: Occupied Japan photo album
A soldier's personal album from the Allied occupation of Japan gathers street scenes of Fukuoka and Kurume, rice paddies and bomb-damaged factories, guard duty and parade ceremonies, and a disarmament checkpoint. Insignia of the 24th Infantry Division, occupation currency, and food-distribution snapshots give the collection a rare ground-level immediacy.
