Burma '45: The Road To Mandalay

40m
How did Allied air superiority and mechanisation contribute to the liberation of Central Burma? In what ways did Heitarō Kimura and William Slim compare as commanders? When did Punch Cowan's 17th Indian Infantry Division capture Meiktila?

Join James Holland and Al Murray for Part 5 of this series, as they explore the forgotten victories of commander Bill Slim and the 14th Army at the end of a bloody Burma Campaign in WW2, where the biggest enemy wasn't the Japanese but the remote landscape of jungles and rivers.
