Indian Punjab soldiers freed from Japanese prison camp are interviewed by Australian soldiers in Senai, New Guinea, during World War II

Indian Punjabi soldiers freed from Japanese prison camp, are seated in shade under wing of a U.S. Army Air Corps L-4 Grasshopper airplane, at an air field in Senai, Papua New Guinea, during World War 2. They are being interviewed by an Australian Sergeant and an officer. The Punjab former prisoners have been provided uniforms including ranger hats. (They have short hair and no beards, so they may include Sikhs, Dogras, Pathans, and Punjabi Muslims, but haven't yet obtained material for their traditional turbans.) The Sergeant makes notes and sketches on a pad as the escaped POWs provide information about their experiences and information of possible value regarding Japanese forces. Scene shifts to the Punjab soldiers sitting in a grass-roofed hut, with the native Chief of Senai. Several of them sit in in front of the hut, smoking long-stemmed native pipes. The Senai Chief poses with a Punjab Sergeant. Two Stinson L-5 airplanes take off from the Senai field. A group of liberated prisoners prepares and eats a meal.
