What is the Kohima Epitaph and what has it got to do with Britain’s forgotten battle that changed the Second World War?

Well, those of you living in the UK and who attend Remembrance Sunday services will probably know the words even if you don’t know the story behind them:

“When you go home, tell them of us and say,
For your tomorrow, We gave our today.”

The memorial which bears those powerful words, stands in a cemetery containing the graves over over 1,400 British servicemen and memorials to over 900 Indian troops who died alongside them.

They died in one of the bloodiest, toughest, grimmest battles of the Second World War.
A battle sometimes called the “Stalingrad of the East.”

Outnumbered 6:1 and half of whom were from non-combat units, the multi-national British garrison stood their ground in bloody hand-to-hand fighting, refusing to retreat or surrender for two weeks until relieved. And even then the battle continued for another vicious month.

That stand stopped the Japanese invasion of India in its tracks and turned the tide of the war in South East Asia.

Both for its ferocity and its turning point in the war, it has been called: “Britain’s greatest battle.”

The Japanese lost 53,000 men from their army of 85,000.
The British (14th Army) lost 4,000 men killed and wounded.

This forgotten victory was made possible by General William (Bill) Slim commanding the 14th Army.
Rather like the battle and the 14th Army, General Slim has not received the recognition that he is due.


And yet, it is almost completely forgotten.
Rather like the army that fought against the Japanese in Burma.

So, as we near Remembrance Sunday, I think it is time to reveal the story of the Battle of Kohima in 1944.

My name is Chris Green and I love to share stories from British history. Not just because they are interesting but because, good or bad, they have shaped the world we live in today.

History should not be stuffy or a long list of dates or kings & queens.
So rather than lectures or Youtube animations, I tell stories that bring the past to life.

My aim is to be chat as if I were having a coffee or meal with you. Jean in Maryland, USA recently wrote: "Chris, is the history teacher I wish I had at school!"

Just for the record, I do have a history degree in Medieval & Modern history from the University of Birmingham.

A cinematic tribute to Munin Barua, fondly known as Bhaimon Da, this biopic captures the soul and splendor of Assamese cinema.
Through the lens of his extraordinary life and career, the film beautifully traces the golden era of the industry, showcasing the stories of the passionate artists who shaped it. As it journeys through time, the narrative also highlights how cultural icons like Zubeen Garg, Jatin Bora, and Ravi Sharma rose to prominence—with Bhaimon Da's visionary contributions playing a pivotal role in their ascent.
A celebration of legacy, artistry, and the enduring spirit of Assam’s cinematic heritage.

The Mother is the first teacher of a child. A child is the greatest blessing of God for the parents. But along with this angel, comes the responsibility of nurturing and growing your child. This is not an easy job and requires a great amount of patience and perseverance.

Children have highly impressionable minds, and they watch and copy just about everything. Raising your happy, positive children is a shared responsibility of both the parents, but as we all know, a child ends up being with the mother more often and most part of the day owing to needs that only a mother can fulfill.

Since a mother spends the maximum time with her baby, therefore the mother is the first teacher of her child, and the kid believes in her and also follows her completely.

Lyrics:

Temeimi atar
Aser ni ataogo
Tsüngremer mapang
Aser Pa sentong

Lenmang talang ka jajatsü anünga lir
Saka ana den tembar tajung ka lir
Yashi, tanü aser asüng
Pa meim kasa dang

Tsüngrem tenung nung
Ni tanü nangzüker
Anünga alidanga
Ni na kasa meimtsü

Ne takokji kü takok
Ne khuret ni abentsü
Tenungsang aguja tamang nung ka akumer

Ni akaba ajak
Bendanga agütsür
Kibur tenzüktsü mapa
Ana khu kasa lir
