During World War II, a team of US army photographers spent two years recording the everyday lives and struggles of people living in and around the China-Burma-India Theater, which saw some of the fiercest action of the war in the Pacific. Zhao Xu reports.

Editor's Note: This is the seventh in a series of special reports about the experiences of foreigners who either lived or served in China between 1937 and 1945.

US army veteran Sydney Greenberg slept with "a light in the hallway and a flashlight by his bed all the time", according to his son, Philip.
