Does anyone know of where I can go to regarding the Indian Army in Burma? It is for a friend who has just discovered that his relative served there, and he wants to knoe more.

Thanks

Hi and welcome to the forum,

The Indian Army and British Army units attached to it served in Burma over a long period with many different potential information sources depending on when this relative served there. Some dates, a name and a unit would be a good place to start.

Cheers,
Peter

The Border Regiment spent a good deal of time in India. The 1st Bat. was in Burma on the outbreak of war to be replaced by the territorial unit 1/4th  in Jan 1915.

The museum in Carlisle has a large collection of Photos of the Regiment in India.
