Freely downloadable at the Internet Archive, where I first uploaded it. U.S. Army Air Forces Combat Film Report # CF-317 Aerial Supply To Burmese Outposts.
National Archives description "On establishing and supplying observation posts in the jungles of the Assam-Burma frontier. Soldiers and natives set up a post after an 8-day trip by jeep, elephant, and on foot. Natives assist by carrying supplies and erecting buildings. Provisions are dropped to three outposts from airplanes. Shows how the drop is planned and executed, including the use of making panels and smoke signals by the outpost team."
...I read an interesting book by a pilot who flew C-47 planes dropping food in Burma. "Food-bomber pilot, China-Burma-India: personal responsibility in daily effort: the subtle World War II romance of a China-Burma-India pilot with the nurse who saved his life" by Robert T. Brody.
