EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph from the closing stages of World War II, Battery A of the 2nd South East Asia Light Artillery Regiment, under the command of Major O.T. Hackett, engages Japanese positions in the dense Burma Hills of Myanmar (then known as Burma) in 1945. The scene is one of intense conflict, with the battery itself coming under fire from the enemy. The men of the battery, their faces etched with determination and focus, prepare to fire a 3.7 Howitzer, a versatile and effective light artillery piece, towards their targets. The Burma Campaign, fought between 1941 and 1945, was a brutal and protracted conflict that saw the Allies attempt to reclaim the territory lost to the Japanese invasion of 1941. The campaign was marked by its challenging jungle terrain, monsoon rains, and fierce resistance from the Japanese forces. Major Hackett and his men, part of the Allied effort to push back against the Japanese advance, are seen here in the midst of the chaos and danger of battle. The photograph captures the raw power and determination of the Allied forces in their fight against the Japanese in the Burma Hills. This historical image is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the soldiers of the 2nd South East Asia Light Artillery Regiment during the Burma Campaign of World War II. The photograph, taken circa 1945, is a testament to the courage and resilience of the Allied forces in the face of adversity and the harsh realities of war in the jungles of Asia.
