Description: This volume takes an in-depth look at the situation the Allies faced in China, India and Burma and explores the realities of the politic-laden campaign eventually waged in this forgotten theatre during World War II. Beginning with a detailed description of the Allied situation in early 1942, the main body of the work consists of the personal accounts of six individuals who served as part of the re-supply effort in the China-Burma-India theatre: Captain Edward Goodman, Captain David C. Hall, Staff Sergeant Robert Boehm, Corporal Anthony R. Silva, Corporal Alexander McVean and Tech Sergeant Kevin R. Quigley.
