Of all the many stories about the CBI theater and the exploits and heroics of those who were there, I have always found most fascinating how they cut up bulldozers, tanks, and other heavy equipment with oxyacetylene torches, put the pieces, all carefully numbered aboard the transport planes..flew the Hump, then welded them back together after landing. It boggles the mind thinking about it..
It is truly amazing. Good old American ingenuity, for sure.
