V Force wasn't just regular soldiers. It relied on the bravery of local hill tribes—the Naga,Chin&Lushai people, or people like the anthropologist Ursula Graham Bower. Their knowledge of the geography of the Burma/India frontier was the ultimate weapon against invasion. #NagaHills #BurmaWar #VForce

In the heart of the retreat, it wasn't just front-line soldiers fighting. Cooks, orderlies, and signallers were forced to take up arms in a desperate bid for survival. This episode honours the 'odds and sods' who stood their ground when all else seemed lost. #WWII #Podcast #BurmaWar
