Just finished Fergal Keane's superb - if harrowing - account of the siege of Kohima, in which British and Indian forces (notably the West Kents & the Assam Regiment) held out against a huge Japanese force, on a ridge in NE India that rapidly became a necropolis for both sides. It gave rise to the famous epitaph for the 2nd Division ([i]When You Go Home, Tell Them Of Us And Say, For your Tomorrow, We Gave Our Today[/i]).
Well worth reading.
