My father was posted with this unit to India in 1945 (Sept - Dec) and then Singapore until Nov 1946. I'm trying to find any information on the jungle warfare that these units were involved in with the Japanese. I have the war diaries for this unit but nothing is mentioned. Any help would be much appreciated.
The war against Japan ended 02/09/45, so jungle warfare - none I'm afraid. Under normal circumstanes an Advanced Base Workshop would be nowhere near the front line. 24 Adv Base Wksp was at Bangalore, in India, before it transferred to Singapore, months after the end of the war.
