Crossroads of the war in Asia is this junction of the new “Stilwell” Ledo-Burma Road, and the old “Burma Road”, a few miles short of the Chinese border in northern Burma in February 1944. The Stilwell road coming in from India is at the lower left. War supplies make a left turn to continue on to China via the road running out of the photo at upper left. The old Burma Road from Rangoon and lower Burma comes in from the right. The truck and trailer are being waved on to take the turn to China instead of mistakenly keeping straight ahead—and running into Japanese held territory further south. (AP
