If you mean Chandra Bose's INA, they were so fücking insignificant that GB HQ didn't even bother setting up a unit to deal with them at mil or intel level.Originally Posted by Arsenal Alcoholic Review
They were nothing, it's only the BJP fasicts in power now - you know, like the ones who shot Gandhi for having succeeded without their violence - that make them seem more than what they were.
Read the Flahman author - GMF's - autobiog of the war in Burma, Quartered Safe Out Here. He says when he captured 3 INA and took them back, on the way he passed another brigade patrol, the Baluchis. He says the look they gave the INA traitors made it clear they were lucky it was the whiteys not the Baluchis who found them.
2.5m volunteered.
A handful of PoWs defected for better rations.
About as miliarily significant as the 10 GB PoWs who tried to start an SS unit.
Now, wanna talk about them saving the empire at Neuve Chapelle on their first action in France in WW1?
Or the Sikhs and Gurkhas saving British India during the Mutiny?
I did say don't get me started on this
