"I was amazed to read of "Operation Unthinkable"."
Well my dear old Dad was given a couple of jeeps loaded with armed Japanese officers and NCO's and was sent out to roam the streets of Jakarta in late '45 keeping Soekarno's nationalists in their place until the Dutch arrived to reinstall Western Civilisation - absolutely sickened him.
And similar happened in Saigon IIRC..............
