Gerry, I´m I in debt with you, old chap!!!

I just found a really deep on-line account of the East African Campaign as fought by the 5th Indian Division, in the Our Story site, just the kind of material I´ve been looking for since the Ice Age.

If you ever come to Guatemala, let me know, so I can buy you a couple of Guinness.

By the way, after East Africa, the action drifts to the CBI, so it gets even better!
