Water Colours of India & Burma in 1944 & 1945

Over fifty beautiful water colours painted by Driver George Allen of the Royal Signals have been generously gifted to the Kohima Museum by his grandaughter Pam Walker. They illustrate some of the scenes he witnessed when stationed in Burma & India in 1944 & 1945. In addition, she donated his diaries & some pen & ink drawings, as well as a charming school project by her own grandaughter about Driver Allen’s wartime experiences. The Museum is delighted & grateful to receive these gifts, some of which will go on display.
