Nanking Road, 1949, & Some Sikhs in a Jeep

Posted: July 9th, 2022 | No Comments »

A great shot of the Nanking Road (Nanjing Lu) in 1949 just prior to the fall to the communists. I zoomed in to get a close up on the Sikh guys in the jeep – police or army I’m not sure? Not siure if the Sikh constables survived the end of the concessions in 1943 or were hired on by the US Army/UNRRA to help with supplies etc?
