The “Remembering Shared Honor” (RSH) project sets out to collect and preserve oral histories related to Chinese and American cooperation during the Second World War in the China-Burma-India(CBI) theater of war.
This historical archive has a total of 7,074 entries.
A B-25 in the ditch next to a runway or taxiway at an American base in China, during WWII. Crews work to salvage the aircraft using a simple human-powered tripod crane.
In the foreground of this revetment are the remains of a North American B-25 bomber, like the one in the background, after it burnt up. This was possibly due to a night attack by Japanese bombers.
"More Work For The Salvage Crews--Not All Missions Ended Up On A Positive Note. This B-25 Ended Up On The Side Of The Runway And Became More Work For Our Salvage Crews." Caption courtesy of Elmer Bukey.
