Japanese: hrmmm how about some land from the area we take after we take over Malaya? Thailand:hrmmm what if I don't? Japanese army: you want us to take your country? The allied seem to abandoned you. Thailand:........ok I let you pass but do give me some of Malaya lands okey? Japanese army: ok deal.
Just as interesting to note, Siam/Thailand was also just as lucky in WWII as well. How many did they lose when Japan was taking over the rest of Asia? Almost no one. Hell, even outside of WWI and WWII, Siam/Thailand somehow even managed to wiggle itself out of being colonized by some European power. It's truly a wonder that no expression using "Lucky Thai's" has ever come about.

None of which were due to combat. When speaking about nations and "losses" during war, it is always assumed the losses come from combat. Side note during the war men who were killed with out having direct contact with enemy forces, had their deaths classified as "Wastage".

um the atomic bomb wasnt just accepted unrestricted killing of civilians. it was to get japan to surrender. had Britain and US invaded many more troops and civilians wouldve died. it wasnt comparable to just dropping bombs on civilian residential targets or passenger ships.

Pleas look up a pronunciation guide. The video is littered with incorrect pronunciations.
Quite. Corps is pronounced "core" and the plural of aircraft is aircraft, like sheep is the plural of sheep. The commentary speaks as if all aircrew were pilots. A large number of aircrew were observers, not pilots.
And the bullet point was spelled"Sandwich" instead of sandwich...
I've never heard Siam pronounced that way.
They didn't lose a single man to warfare. That's called winning.
although the day of landing on Sicily is also called "D-day", when you said "Operation mincemeat" was for D-day, it was a bit misleading.
