Photographer's Note	The vehicles parked here are lorries which came up the Burma Road. They had seen much service in that part of the world. The tires are quite worn. Because of their age they were used sparingly. Americans and Chinese restricted the vehicles to hauling materials which were not too heavy. The background building is a barrack or storage building. The building was made of mud brick and finished with mud. The window panes are made of oil paper; the roof of tiles which were backed and blue-grey in color.
