Japan vs Burma: The Forgotten WW2 Battle To Halt Japan’s Expansion | Forgotten Allies | War Stories
By 1942, Imperial Japan’s expansion had taken them to the border of Burma, a British territory. However, what deeply concerned Britain, was the looming threat of a potential Japanese invasion of British India should they succeed in conquering Burma. This is the story of how British and Burmese troops rallied against the rising Imperial threat and how, despite their valor, the veterans of Burma were relegated to obscurity post-war. Join us in honoring these overlooked allies, shedding light on their resilience, sacrifices, and the historical context that shaped this forgotten chapter of WW2.
