Eastern Front to Burma and China War Efforts Detailed
The Quadrant Conference mapped Southeast Asia Command under Mountbatten to restore land routes to China. US and British assets were insufficient for Burma's southward attack while monsoon rivers and jungles hindered progress. Stilwell led a China theater staff with Stratemeyer heading Eastern Air Forces as Japan pressed into Burma. The plan stressed reinforcing the Hump air route to China and maintaining China in the war, despite Allied resource strain.
