[Modified military jeep at Kiangwan Airfield]

Photograph of a modified military jeep at Kiangwan Airfield, China, circa 1940s.

Typed on verso: "American GIs of the Shanghai Air Depot employ typical Yank ingenuity in turning an open jeep into an enclosed two-door sedan to escape the rain and splashing mud during the recent month-long rainy spell at Kiangwan Airfield. U.S. Army Air Force Aviation Engineers, who during the war acquired the nack [knack] of clearing jungles and turning them into airfields on 48 hours notice, are rapidly replacing the Jap-built dirt roads with rock and gravel all-weather surfacing.
