The other captures Lord Louis Mountbatten, the newly appointed Allied Commander in the Southeast Asia Theatre, shaking hands with General Ho Ying Chin, China's Minister of War and Chief of Staff. The meeting took place at the Military Affairs Council Headquarters, where new strategies against Japanese forces were being planned. A historically important pair reflecting high-level Allied cooperation and China's diplomatic presence during the Second World War.
