A senior British officer of 26th Indian Division meets Burmese civilians.
A group of servicemen, presumably Army officers, seen on a verandah of a damaged house. Present is a senior officer. Group of seated Burmese civilian men of a variety of ages. A senior officer wearing the triangular patch of 26th Indian Division mixes informally with them, at one point looking at a banknote before giving it back to a Burmese man.
Notes
No dopesheet survives for this film so details as to location, date, unit, and the identity of the officer are unclear. 26th Indian Division were a part of XV Indian Corps and so the location is likely to be somewhere in the Arakan.
