They had to process the negatives in the field. The darkroom was the nearest forest at night. The photographer carried 2 dishes and pouches of powdered developer and fixer. A few teaspoons of powder in each dish, stir, and run the negatives back and forth through the dishes. Worst part is they only had 50mm lenses, no telephotos, so close-ups of combat scenes were particularly dangerous. Watching way too much History Channel!
