Earlier this year, we were delighted to assist WW2 veteran Richard Day in revisiting Kohima in India, where he served in the Royal Welch Fusiliers in 1944-45. His 75th anniversary journey of remembrance was supported by @KohimaMuseum @KohimaEdTrust @VeteransFdn #IndusInspires

The 1st Bn of the Assam Regiment were vital for the defence of Kohima after having delayed the Japanese advance at Jessami for 7 days. I was able to visit the ARC in Shillong last month

@KohimaMuseum I tracked him down to King Edward’s in Birmingham - Slim’s old school - but he died in the mid1970s and left no trace. Sad

I have been asked about the best autobiographical account of the fighting at #Kohima. This is close to it, a thinly disguised autobiographical account written as fiction by an officer in the Reconnaissance Corps, a rabbit skin seller in civilian life from Birmingham. I would love
