I have to say, you find the most interesting stuff to look through. Never was interested in this snippet of history, never would have thought of it, but this clip was a great little use of time. Thanks
I am kind of a History Hipster. Where as some of my friends will jump for joy finding an old record or car part. I go nuts over obscure bits of world history. Especially the bits you really don't learn about in the regular school curriculum. I found out about the "Indonesian war of Independence" while looking into info about "The Mayla Emergency". Lots of interesting post World War 2 conflicts.
Here is a longer video. Some of it covers the same film already shown but, also fallows other ops and the pre-Dutch action. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8U2QImMSzwE
