Visitor's Name: Kai Khan Mang
Homepage URL:
You are from: USA originally from Burma
Comments: I am a US citizen, but originally from Burma. My father Sgt
50841 Thual Za Lang served
under the British Army in WW II. He was called by the Lord in August 1995 but was able to tell me the story the time and
date before he died.
He was recruited in 1939 and then stationed as a frontier force at Mergui and Moulmein. And then they withdrew to India, and he was a parachute troop at Ceylon now it is called Sri Lanka. At that time, he was in 2nd Burma Rifles. I saw Maj Hadley's picture with their company when they were stationed in Prome. Maj Hadley is still alive, if someone knows about him please let me know.
End
of the war, he came back to Burma, and served under 2nd Burma Rifles until
Burma's Independence. He continued in service under the Burmese government until
1960 as 4th Chin Rifles. He retired in 1960 when the Revolutionary Council
stepped up.
