EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a pivotal moment during the intense fighting between the Allied forces, primarily the Indian Army's Gurkha regiments, and the Japanese army in the Burma Campaign of World War Two. The image, taken in April 1944 near Palel, shows Gurkha soldiers manning a Vickers machine-gun as they engage the enemy, with the distant roar of Royal Air Force (RAF) aircraft audible in the background. The RAF was providing crucial air support during the Japanese drive along the Palel road towards Imphal, a critical strategic location. The 48 photographs in this collection offer a poignant reminder of the brutal and decisive battles fought during the Burma Campaign, which lasted from 1941 to 1945. This photograph, in particular, underscores the vital role the RAF played in supporting ground troops during this pivotal period in World War Two history.
