Landscape photograph captioned "N713a. The streets of Tacloban, principal town in Layte Island, in the Philippines collapsed under heavy weight of military traffic after heavy rain causing ankle deep slush and big holes to form in the roads bogging down jeeps, trucks and ducks. The heavy traffic that has passed through the town since the invasion was undreamed of when the streets were first constructed. Australian official photo. 4/11/44."
