Images from January 14, 2008 visit to a WWII US crash site at Bamo township, in Tian'e county, Guangxi province.
Mr. YANG, 93 years old, who was finally able to give us a clear memory of the approximate date of the crash. He had left the village many years before, but villagers suggested that he might have more specific memories, and we set out on several hours of driving, and crossing a river on a tiny ferry at dark, followed up by a walk in the dark to Mr. YANG's village. But it was all worth it, once we had gotten the information we needed, and had shared the terrific hospitality of Mr. YANG's table.
