Description
Photograph of workers spreading gravel, sand, and rock over a disintegrating road at Kiangwan Airfield, China, circa 1940s.
Caption on verso: "Broken rock and heavy sand and gravel are spread over disintergrating [disintegrating] Jap-built roadways at Kiangwan Airfield. Heavy rain have churned the road used at the airfield by the United States Army Air Forces at Kiangwan into quagmires and are now in the process of being built by U.S. Army Air Forces Aviation Engineers. Because of the bad weather and heavy mud all civilian tours of the airbase have been cancelled or postponed. (Official USAAF Photo)."
