Kyigon, Meikita, Burma 1945-03-20 (2 others)

Overview:

The situation in the Meikita area was chaotic in March of '45. On some days the British forces would break up Japanese infantry formations with combined arms groups of patrolling infantry and armor, on other days the Japanese would concentrate and conduct savage attacks on crucial parts of the line. One such Japanese attack tried to reach the all important airfield where British supplies and reinforcement were being fed into the battle. But first they had to demolish a "defensive Box" held by fresh Indian troops.

Defender: British (Elements 99th Indian Infantry Brigade, 17th Indian Division)
