Original Toronto Star caption: A scout party of British jungle fighters of Field Marshal Wavell's forces are shown here wading through a stream in Burma. Since Gen. Sir Harold Alexander led meagre British forces out of Burma a year ago; strength has been remustered to drive out the Japs. At present British patrols are feeling out the Japs; ready for what seems likely to develop into a major battle in that Far Eastern area.
