Comments: This is a story of New Zealand’s involvement in two forgotten wars as seen through the personal accounts of New Zealanders, both men and women who were there. It is an unknown story of New Zealand’s first significant contact with Asia and one which shaped New Zealand’s understanding, as well as shaping the structure and ethos of the New Zealand Armed Forces for the last half of the 20th Century.
