Burma 1941 - 1945
The Burma Campaign was the longest continuous operation involving British and Commonwealth forces during the Second World War. The troops called themselves 'The Forgotten Army'. They were given little credit and often the poorest supplies and equipment -and yet fought one of the bloodiest and cruelest campaigns of the entire war, winning 29 Victoria Crosses and emerging splendidly victorious. This documentary features expert commentary and analysis by Brigadier Christopher Bullock and personal experiences of the veterans of the Burma Star Association.
