There's an array of tin boxes of all sorts and home made dark room kits made of black cloth and brass sticks all designed to be used in the field for processing 16mm and 35mm film.  They even processed 65mm for aerial footage once the airfields had been retaken.

He trained US coastguards personnel to use Eymo's on the beach landing but were unable to use them due to intense fire. Robert Capa did manage to fire off 114 shots but on his rapid return to the landing craft he dropped the exposed film in the water. When he got back to his "Time Life" office in London the next day they quickly developed the film's and were amazed that they all came out although a bit blurred. Understandable considering the circumstances!  Unfortunately, they gave the developed films to the "tea boy" to dry off but he positioned the film strips too close to the electric dryer and they shrivelled up!!!  They managed to save 11 images only. They are now called the "famous 11".   One shot appeared on the next issue of Time Life which one of a soldier in the water also used by Spielberg in SPR.  What happened to the "tea boy" I do not know, but you can guess.
