Britain's Secret War
The Indonesian Confrontation 1962-66 (Men-at-Arms)
Will Fowler
The Confrontation' between Malaysia and Indonesia in Bornew�(January 20, 2006),�the war against Indonesian raids across a 900-mile border in some of the world's worst jungle terrain, eventually involved nearly 20,000 British and Commonwealth troops, with air and naval support; and yet, by mutual consent, it was astonishingly little reported at the time. This
secret war' saw the perfection of SAS jungle tactics; a Parachute Regiment action described as a second Rorke's Drift'; and audacious secret missions deep inside enemy territory, including the award to a Gurkha soldier of the British Army's only
living VC' for 40 years.
