Linking the northeastern Indian town of Ledo and Yunnan's provincial capital Kunming via Tengchong, the 1,726-km-long Stilwell Road was named after American WWII General Joseph Stilwell.

Dubbed a "lifeline for the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression," more than 50,000 tonnes of supplies were transported to battlefields in China during the war by the Stilwell Road.

Stilwell was a former U.S. general who helped the Chinese government and people during the fight against Japanese aggression.

During his 42-year military service, Stilwell made five visits to China and resided in the country for 12 years.

While serving in the China-Burma-India Theater during World War II, he provided support to the Chinese people in their resistance against Japanese aggression. His efforts contributed to the final victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War. (Photo by Gong Zujin/Xinhua)
