- the Burma Campaign. In 1941 the Allies fought in a disastrous retreat across Burma against the Japanese
- an enemy more prepared, better organised & more powerful than anyone had imagined. Yet in 1944, following key battles at Kohima & Imphal, & daring operations behind enemy lines by the Chindits, the Commonwealth army were back, retaking lost ground one bloody battle at a time.

6 June 1944: the day Allied forces crossed the Channel & began fighting their way into Nazi-occupied Northwest Europe. Initiated by airborne units & covered by air & naval bombardment, the Normandy landings were the most ambitious combined airborne & amphibious assault ever attempted. Their success marked the beginning of the end for Nazi Germany. Drawing on thousands of hours of eyewitness testimony recorded by the Imperial War Museum, Forgotten Voices of D-Day tells the compelling story of this turning point in World War 2. Hearing from paratroopers & commandos, glider pilots & landing craft crewmen, airmen & naval personnel, we learn first-hand what it was like as men waited to go in, as they neared the beaches & drop zones, & as they landed & met the enemy. Accounts range from memories of the daring capture of ' Pegasus' bridge by British glider-bourn troops to recollections of brutal fighting as the assault forces stormed the beaches. Featuring a mass of previously unpublished material, Forgotten Voices of D-Day is a powerful & important new record of a defining moment in modern history. ...
