The troops of the 81 (West African) Division - one in six of the 14th Army's strength - have been less than fairly treated in the accounts of the Burma campaign against the Japanese (who rated them 'undoubtedly our best jungle fighters). This comprehensive account by a British ex-platoon commander and signals offcer, who was wounded and mentioned in despatches, puts the record straight. HRH The Duke of Edinburgh provides a Foreword.
