Скачать или смотреть The Burma Campaign WWII: Britain's Forgotten Jungle War - Epic Battles & Untold Stories

Dive into the harrowing and often-overlooked Burma Campaign of World War II (1941-1945), where Allied forces from the British Empire clashed with the Imperial Japanese Army in the brutal jungles of Southeast Asia. This short documentary explores Britain's "Forgotten Army" under General William Slim, the desperate retreat from Rangoon, the innovative Chindits led by Orde Wingate, the turning point at Imphal and Kohima during Operation U-Go, and the final Allied counteroffensive that reopened vital supply routes like the Burma Road and Ledo Road. Discover how malaria, monsoons, and guerrilla warfare claimed more lives than combat, the role of diverse troops from India, China, and beyond, and the campaign's lasting impact on Burma's independence in 1948 and Asia's postwar nationalism.
