Gliders in Buram
Thank you Reader 123 for that glider pick-up clip, it brought back many memories of my training at Ibsley in this esoteric art (previously described somewhere way back in this thread).
As for gliders in Burma there certainly were rumours of their possible use for the forthcoming invasion of Malaya, but where they were kept remains a total mystery - to me, anyway. Had this invasion actually taken place most of the airborne effort would surely have been mounted from Mingaladon, but never once during my time there from late August '45 until several months after the war's end were any gliders seen to be seen - so where were they, or was it all just rumour?
