A good account of the complex military situation in Burma, explaining the course of the different engagements between allied and Japanese forces, making it easier to understand the part played by my father's unit, operating in Burma 1944-45. Operating in very inhospitable terrain, in monsoon weather, with great logistical difficulties in re-supply, I have enormous admiration and respect for the fortitude and sheer grit of the XIV Army. Clearly air superiority and especially the development of supply by air-drop, pioneered by the Chindits, was a major factor in the eventual victory. ( ) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
The Lost Voices of our 'Forgotten Army' in the war with Japan 1941-45. Nearly a million strong by 1944, the British 14th Army fought and ultimately conquered the Japanese forces that invaded Burma and strove to break through into India. But the victory was hard won, with great suffering along the way. With priority given to defeating Germany, these troops were last in line for additional men and equipment, and they joked about being "The Forgotten Army." Here is the story of these remarkable soldiers, whose monument at Kohima reads: 'When You Go Home, Tell Them Of Us And Say, For Their Tomorrow, We Gave Our Today.'
