Burmese Campaign
The Burmese Campaign, fought during World War II from 1941 to 1945, involved military operations in Burma (now Myanmar) between Allied forces, primarily British and Indian troops, and Japanese forces. Its goal was to reclaim territory occupied by Japan and secure supply routes to China. The campaign included significant battles, harsh jungle conditions, and complex logistics. Despite initial Japanese advances, the Allies gradually regained control, culminating in the eventual retreat of Japanese forces. The campaign was crucial for the strategic outcome in Southeast Asia, contributing to the overall defeat of Japan in the war.
