Al's notation is "Burning everything before evacuation." American hostels at the base burn during the American and Chinese retreat before the Japanese arrive in the fall of 1944. Guangxi province, Liuzhou air base.

The notation provided by Al on the back of the photo is simply, "Waiting to evacuate." This is just prior to the Japanese over running the base (at Liuzhou or Guilin) in October 1944, as part of Ichigo.
