Burma 44: Imphal - The Battle Begins (Part 4)
Listen now
Description
In this fourth episode, Al and James turn their attention to the Assam front and the major battle being planned by the Japanese. General Mutaguchi Renya’s aims were nothing less than the destruction of the Allies in South East Asia and the conquest of India, but General Slim’s plans were also ambitious: to destroy the Japanese 15th Army around Imphal and only then cross back into Burma.
