I passed through Myanmar (formerly Burma) for work recently and came across this ex War Department Chevrolet truck. The truck is still looked after and is pressed in to use as a shuttle bus to take tourists between Thanwe Airport and a resort. There seems to be quite a few transportation remnants of the War floating around in Myanmar. I would love to spend some time there and discover more, must be some interesting bikes to be found!

| Wartime Chevrolet truck. The Burma AA badge is a nice touch. |
 |
| The coach body seems to be a fairly new addition and is really well executed in hardwood. Great to see that it still gives good service. |

| Another view of the front end of the Chevy. |

| A common sight in Myanmar is old wartime sand tracks put to use as fencing. The Allies must have abandoned miles and miles of it when they left. |
