Kings and Generals' historical animated documentary series covering the Pacific War week by week continues. A year ago, we were still covering the start of the Japanese advanced across the Pacific, Today, the picture is much more different, however, due to the fact that the Japanese have been thrown into the defensive both in the Solomons and in New Guinea. With plans already underway to evacuate Guadalcanal, and with the recent fall of Buna as we saw last week, the horizon looks grim for the Empire of Japan. In this episode, we’ll continue with our coverage of the Battle of Buna-Gona as it enters its last phase: the Sanananda Campaign; and we’ll also head to the CBI theater to see some new developments in the Yunnan border.

watched the idk 30 second vid about it but what are the benefits of joining per level?
Which software you use to build these videos. pleasse reply.
when are you going to make the latin invasion. In 1024 the Vatican invaded Byzantium with all its Catholic armies. their only purpose is to buy the ark of the covenant in Hagia Sophia. Tell about the pope who murdered 50 thousand Christians in Istanbul.
I don't think I know any other Pacific War documentation available and accessible to the general public that goes into such detail on military operations while also keeping an eye on the big picture. This series really fills a gap and answers a lot of questions I've had for years. There are big picture documentations that cover the war in a couple of hours, where I'd always ask "Yeah, but how did that outcome actually come to pass?", or stories about individual soldiers or suchlike where I'd ask "Yeah, but what did that mean for the war?" This series finally provides some answers. If you actually manage to cover the whole war this way, I'll be watching for the next 2.5 years.
Great video as always. As Thai, I never ever known that we do initiate attack against Chinese army positions during WW2 (and also British positions in Malaysia as well like you show me in some of you previous videos). All we were taught in history class are something like PM Plaek is kinda bad person for allow Japanese to use our country as base, some territorial defense unit in the South did an awesome job at holding Japanese marine advance after their amphibious assault and free Thai group is like a hero that save our country by creating resistance group and saying to Allies that we are on your side only PM Plaek (and some people) support Japanese. Thank you for this awesome series!
Every country hides some information to save face. You get to know about other things from different sources
Because it's not benefit nationalist propaganda.
Agreed. Kid in school only learn what goverment or someone in power want them to learn.
His story = history. Always taking history with grain of salt, it is a story at end.
I was ignorant of Thai involvement in the Pacific War as well. Most history in US primary and secondary schools focus on the American contribution and speak only a little about the British, Australian and Chinese part in the struggle. Other countries (like Thailand) are not mentioned at all. Is PM/Marshal Plaek the same one who mandated western dress codes in Thailand during his regime?
Thai's history book always skip the part that we were the Axis and take an offensive against the Allied both to the north and the south. They told only the story how we did not become a WW2 loser side. This video elaborates every detail which include my country on every aspect. Thank you K&G!
Wow never expected to see information about the Thai military and its actions during this time period!
Agreed! That is brand new information too me as well!
Agree. The Thai military operations during WW2 is often a forgotten or overlooked chapter of the war.
This series became a Must-See back when I saw the preludes in my suggestions. And now it's at Episode 59. I'm here for the long haul to the deck of USS Missouri, and probably an afterword.
The scale of the fighting during WWII is mind boggling.
An entire chapter of this war that is little talked about - New Guinea. Great work as usual.
From the middle of 1942 until new years eve, the Allies and the Japanese had fought each other on more or less equal grounds. But the start of 1943, also marked the start of a periode where the initiative would lay firmly with the Allies.
At Truk, admiral Yamamoto was probably not in a very celeberatory mood. His concerns, and that of many others were expressed by his right hand man, Vice-Admiral Matome Ugaki in his diary:
"31st December 1942
The year 1942 is going to pass tonight. How brilliant was the first-stage operation up to April! And what miserable setbacks since Midway in June! The invasions of Hawaii, Fiji, Samoa, and New Caledonia, the liberation of India and destruction of the British Far Eastern Fleet have all scattered like dreams. Meanswhile, not to speak of capturing Port Moresby, but the recovery of Guadalcanal..... turned out to be impossible"
Within a few days after this note, admiral Yamamoto ordered the initiation of Operation KE, the evacuation of the troops on Guadalcanal.
If Yamamoto and his closest subordinates had been able to compare the home front reports from Japan, Nazi Germany and the United States, they would have seen that the war is already lost by this point, and that any further fighting would bring nothing but unnecessary deaths.
One example is the amount of shipping produced in the year of 1942.
ships
Nazi-Germany 244
Empire of Japan 68
United States 1854
Furthermore, it's about this time that the a new fighter, the F4U Corsair, was declared "ready for combat". Its first deployment: Henderson Field.
and the hellcat much superior to the wildcat
Thanks for this bit
Good point. I think now we are in the middle of the second phase of the war, in which after a brilliant start, Japan AND the Us are fighting on Equal terms (albeit with Japan losing ground). I think this phase extends to November 1943. After that, América Will wreak havoc with the Japanese forces.
Those 1850 ships are just nutting out the production lines. American production starts to hit its stride in 43 and even by 45 was nowhere near its potential peak. The US still had two more years of exponential growth forecast for 1946 and 1947.
What a great comment, thank you for sharing this!
Watching your Pacific War videos is like watching some kind of action movie, you present them so well.
This is excellent. I don't have to keep referring to the map section, as I do in my books, to get a picture in my head of it. Thanks. Because of my studies in Tok Pisin, I knew what kunai was too.
As an American I respect and love our Aussie allies and the US armed forces.
However, the tenacity and ferocity of the IJA in this campaign compels an admiration that is unsettling.
Japanese believed they were fighting to prevent occupation of their homeland and Far East. It wasn't logic but belief so they usually hadn't surrender.
As you know it happened
@@minoru-kkthat’s what you call supremacy of will
This is the first time I've heard of the Thai forces in the conflict. You guys rock!!
Let's GO! Fantastic work K&G love this series, I've learnt so much.
You get the Thai name wrong a bit with Thai prime minister and commander. Phibun Songkhram is actually a whole last name, so His name should be Plaek Phibunsongkhram (แปลก พิบูลสงคราม) and Luang is actually a noble rank of sort so Luang Haansongkhram real name is Phichai Haansongkhram. Lastly, ‘Phi’ in Thai meant ภิ which actually doesn’t have ‘h’ sound.
Your patreon donation could have been the little bit of money they needed to avoid that mistake.
Phayap is also pronounced Pa-yaab
Nobody but Thai people can pronounce the names correctly... Sorry 🤣
Interesting, thanks for your input
ผมคนไทยนะ ผมว่าออกเสียงได้เท่านี้ก็ดีแล้วครับสำหรับชาวต่างชาติ
Around 3 months after the fall of Buna, a junior Australian officer who fought at Buna was in Port Moresby at the airforce liaising office. He was waiting his turn when he noticed a whole heap of recon photos on the wall so he had a look at them, he quickly discovered that they of the Buna/Gona area, they clearly showed the Japanese constructing their defences. He asked a admin guy when these where taken, the admin guy said it’s written on the back of the photos. They where taken 2 months before the Australian/USA attack ! To say he as angry was an understatement !
Just another command failure !
That's entirely possible, but where did you come across this tidbit? Thanks.
@@Uncle_Torgo it’s been a while but I think it was in the “Gona’s Gone - The Battle for the Beach-Head 1942” by Peter Brune.
@@jeffreypurcell4681 ok, thanks.
i am enjoying THIS SERIES SO MUCH. i like how you K A G ARE NOT MISSING ONE THING IN THE PACIFIC FRONT OF WW2. Also, neat thing is I NEVER HERD OF THIS SMALL CAMPAIN BY THE THI ARMY IN WW2. also, much from now on by the Japan army was on the Defensive except for some offensives in the CBI front
I couldn't imagine the hell my forefathers found on those islands and in the jungles of Burma. The Pacific theater was a meat grinder. K&G y'all are the best and this series is fantastic. Keep up the great work, looking forward to more.
It's striking how small so much of the fighting in the pacific was, with regular battles of a few hundrets or thousands of man. Compared to the front in eastern europe, where battles regulary reached hundrets of thousands of man. Does not detract from the important place these struggles had thought.
Island warfare hurts logistics too much to have large armies on one tiny island.
You all are amazing. Thank you for what you do.
At 2:51 the map incorrectly labels the Australian 55/53 battalion as the 55/33. This is corrected in the later maps.
Great work on the video. This comment is only to add clarity.
@@kingsandgeneral1029 This reply-comment baffles me. But I think the K+ G channel is doing a great job.
This is spam, ignore it.
Fantastic video keep it up your doing amazing job
I love learning about these little discussed but vital fronts in the Pacific War
In addition to all the fantastic comments and kudos you get, can I just say that the sound design and quality in these videos is unparalleled, except by Hollywood-level productions. Absolutely incredible work!
always the highlight of my tuesday morning
Tuesday evening: whiskey, soft couch, Kings and Generals.
OMG you legends! I was just looking for something to listen to on the way home. Your videos are easy to listen to much good info
Terrific episode! A worthy way to ring in the new year.
I am surprised continually about the lack of armor and artillery support in these campaigns.
Island hopping and terrain were not conducive for armored combat or artillery support.
New Guinea is basically a 10,000 ft mountain covered in jungle and traversed by muddy walking tracks. No sealed roads at all, motor transport impossible.
So good to get content about Thai participation during this time!
"and reluctance to attack" pretty much defines the American forces in New Guinea completely
They suffered 2,843 killed or wounded in action. Something tells me that doesn't happen unless you attack.
Thanks for another great video. I so look forward to them.
Thanks again for your terrific coverage of this conflict
Yo Kings and Generals! I really don't mind the ads. At least they're not double unskippable ads!
The best pacific war documentary.⚡⚡⚡
Amazing…. Like always. You guys are the best 👏🏻
にしても、物凄く詳細に太平洋戦争を解説してますね。連合国視点の解説はあまりないため、見ていて楽しかったです。
また、この時期のタイ軍の攻勢も知りませんでした。こうした細かな点にも焦点を当てているのは流石だと感じます。
今後も無理ない範囲で、動画配信を頑張ってください。応援しています。
Great series, thnx.
Thank you , K&G .
🐺
Love the new layout waaaaaaay easier for me to keep up worldwide❤
In my opinion, the Pacific War is so compelling just because of its small scale. During operation barbarossa, the German offensive line stretched from Maine to about georgia. Try getting your head around a battle at scale.
Here we get actual small troop unit movements and names of individual soldiers doing individual deeds.
China's Yunnan province having a Thai minority is new to me but I do know Yunnan has a lot of Dai, a people group with a similar culture and language to the Thais.
Happy new year kings, sorry I’ve been absent for a little bit😅
Happy New Year!
Thanks!
While the English 7th Calvary regiment moved towards the roadblock, the US 7th Cavalry formed two columns to route a large Gathering of indigenous natives further upriver...
Australian...
@@ray.shoesmith i think its a joke. the US 7th Cavalry was led by Custer at the Little Big Horn. that didnt go so well
The Huggins roadblock was established on 30 November by I Company under Capt. John D. Shirley and the Antitank Company under Capt. Meredith M. Huggins, both elements of the 3d Battalion, 126th Infantry. Operations of the next three weeks on the Sanananda front consisted essentially of the maintenance of this roadblock. Capt. Shirley was killed on 2 December and Capt. Huggins was wounded on the 5th, but their men held on, against incredible odds and with no reinforcement, until 22 December, when they were relieved by the Australians.
The defense of the Higgins roadblock epitomizes the combat experience of the entire 126th Infantry during the Papuan campaign. The 126th was the first U.S. force to be sent to Port Moresby and the hardest-hit of the three regiments of the 32nd Infantry Division. It had 3,791 men when it entered combat against the Japanese in mid-November. At the conclusion of the Battle of Buna-Sanananda, it had suffered a total of 3,406 casualties. When the 126th was returned to American command, Eichelberger received what was left of it with a martial welcome complete with band music. He later wrote: "They were so ragged and so pitiful that when I greeted them my eyes were wet."
Great Knowledgeable Video for History students 😀❤️❤️❤️
Danke!
Love this channel! Thank you!
Again well done with the video as always spot on well done 👏
Happy New Year!
Thankyou informative
Great Video as allways👍
Another fantastic video 🙌
Great thankyou
Bob Semple should’ve offered his monsters to go at them.
Thanks for the video 😉
Thai on Chinese racism. As tragic and sad as any other form of racism. And, for a European, much much weirder. Maybe extreme nationalist, anti-Chinese violence is a more accurate term (?)
(I sure would have difficulties to see that the racists and their victims are from different races)
living in thailand,theres a complete absence of the truth in thai history regarding ww2,along with any other parts f their history which portray a negative light,as a thai writer says they whitewash the whole thing,ditto the american war in indo china and the actions within the thai border too.the korean war too,the thai navys major battleship ran itself aground.a level of incmpetence that was repeated just a few weeks ago when another navy ship sank in the shallow protected gulf of thailand,many thais would welcome a glimpse of the the truth as theyre certainly not going to get it especially with the current bunch in charge.please illuminate us all as u can see many people would love to see more
is it so strange?
colonialism isn't just a British Empire thing
outcomes are rarely by chance
What role did the Native people of Papua New Guinea have in these campaigns
They enjoyed eating japanese food.
For the most part, they were taken on as porters by both sides, whether that be through pay in rations or being impressed to work. Typically, they would haul food and ammunition but also carried casualties on litters back to aid stations. For this last part, they are remembered fondly by American and Australian troops as they would handle their charges with gentleness, even over rough terrain or under fire.
Great as usual.
Thanks for showing there were other Axis invader besides Japan
Where did the information on Thai operations come from? Is there an official Thai history?
This was a nice video
Great job. When will you make a video about the ottomans?
Love vid
Love great a Phayap army💪💪
Thai's invasion of China is never mentioned in any history textbook in mainland China. Actually, Thai participation in WW2 is not mentioned in any Chinese history textbook.
I know that Thai was siding with Japan in WW2, but this is my first time acknowledging its invasion.
Great video! Just a small typo. Japanese troops in Myanmar is 15th army , not 17th.
Say hello and I'll join as a channel member
Hello
@@beaverdeceiver5691 not you xd
But hello anyways
Hello
@@KingsandGenerals done! And hello to you too
I just like to picture in my mind some Japanese cleaning up for the morning and some clearing with some wrestling in the bushes. They all turn to look and all of a sudden 60 British Lancers burst from the thicket
That dude Seni Pramoj was a true hero!! Thats some iron balls!
Can you do a video about Bulgaria in WW1?
10:44 "Japanese would launch raiding missions for food and ammunition"
Is this correct? I was not aware of any Japanese ammunition compatibility with allied forces.
Hey Buddy can you start making a series on How Marathas defeated mughals in India. There were many battles which happened and a lot of guerilla tacticts which were used by Marathas to defeat mughals. This IMO is Indian Game of Thrones and would take 1 whole series where you can cover different battles such as Battle of Pratapgard, Battle of Pawankind etc. I think you can attract a lot of Indian Audiences from this. Thanks!
How in the World did they get hundreds of Cavalry Horses over the Kakoda Track !!!???
How did they feed the Horses in a Jungle ???
Cavalry regiments stopped using horses during and after WW1 but retained the regiment name. There were no horses at Sanananda.
Could you do a video about the Sheikh Ubeydullah rebellion

🥳🥳
LESGOOOOOOO!!! MORE K&G
CFA
The Japanese were quite a handful.
I don't think anyone minds sponsors man.
👏👍
Don't hear much about the military operations of Thailand during WW2.
Anyone know the soundtrack at 4:48
You get a roadblock! You get a roadblock! You get a roadblock!...
You can start to see just how terrible the Japanese situation is, trapped in their bunkers, diseased and starving they can’t contest no man’s with patrols or launch major counterattacks as they would under better conditions
I never knew Thailand invaded China during WWll
Milne Bay is pronounced “Miln”
30🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I didn't know Thailand invaded China!'
I love this series! May I suggest that you might do well to include some footage to backup your excellent situational maps. It would be a welcome bonus and break up the monotony of maps. However, the degree of research you guys have gone through is indeed highly impressive and you're to be commended for it. The only other thing I would like to see is some sort of scale markers on your maps to help us get a grip on how big an area are we seeing in each map. I know that is the one area I struggle to grasp (is that 100 yards or a 1000 yards?). Thank you and keep up the wonderful work you are doing on this important documentation job filling in the vast blanks left by the history books!
You are making a mistake restricting* access to those who don’t subscribe or patroon you. As I always say, these mistakes are urs to make. I have n3ver subscribed to a single channel , cuz that’s a slippery slope. Instead I memorize my favorite channels, of which you are one. 38 channels I constantly check on and encourage others to view.
too bad the Allies had no aircraft to help them.
"Today, the situation is much more different" is something a 4th grader would catch when proofreading. Let me know if you need a new person to proofread your script( which you do) free of charge.

I just raised it to 17 out of spite. 😉
Never knew Thailand was able to, and Invaded China. WOW.
Chinese invaded Vietnam in 1979 too. and Failed.
China lost to two smaller regional powers, Thailand and Vietnam.
I don't think it needs to be said, given this is a WW2 video, but at the end the Thai invasion Yunnan was defeated by the Chinese. K&G will definitely cover that when they reach the allied offensive operations in Northern Burma and Western Yunnan that began in October 1943
The WW2 has not ended yet to say China lost against Thailand. Thailand surprised attacked while China was busy against Japan and no major city in region was taken yet.
You guys are right. I am just tracing Chinese line of thought.
They Claim Taiwan as theirs', which it never was.
Taiwan is an independent country.
If we go by that line of reasoning, It would means that they lost to Thailand and Vietnam, which they won't admit. I just love poking fun at Hypocrites.
@@yemannwaiphyo8817 The twist you didn’t think of is the China government (KMT) that is fighting in WW2 against Japan/Thailand is also the same one that is part of the government in Taiwan (after losing Civil war in China).
@@yemannwaiphyo8817 TW is never an independent country at least officially. ( as they have to for constitutional reasons)
Same goes to Thailand with their whitewashing of history about this incursions that is utterly removed (to a point that most of us in SEA did not know as well).
Every nation does this for prestige to keep its reputation for many aspects - government legitimacy, political support, pride, foreign investment, population sentiment .. yada yada.
Sometimes its nice to develop good thought process by learning to think starting with "why they would do this" logically instead of poking fun and knowing nothing.
when are you going to make the latin invasion. In 1024 the Vatican invaded Byzantium with all its Catholic armies. their only purpose is to buy the ark of the covenant in Hagia Sophia. Tell about the pope who murdered 50 thousand Christians in Istanbul.
Please make it balanced.
I'm also curious about the Japanese Soldiers point of views.
For them this war is not about victory at this point, but how to survive...and hopefully go home.
If i had a choice between The Pacific/The Europe war i think i rather fight the germans
jungle fighting is so worst
In the Pacific, jungle fights you.
So far in the war the Aust 7th Div has been in Syria versus Vichy French, and in the Sahara desert verses Germans and Italians.
Thanks!
