CBI Victory! The 80th Anniversary Retrospective (1945-2025) of the WWII China-Burma-India Theater
This retrospective exhibit on the China-Burma-India theater of WWII is open until January 2026 at the San Diego Chinese Historical Museum. The China-Burma-India Theater (CBI) was the United States military designation for battlefields in that region during World War II. CBI events have been largely forgotten or marginalized in Western memory, but their stories are as colorful as those from more heavily documented areas of WWII. For more information, click here.
