It is 75 miles from Hopin to Mawlu fourteen days journey through a monsoon swept jungle
It is 75 miles from Hopin to Mawlu fourteen days journey through a monsoon swept jungle, over Japanese road blocks, through little devastated villages where every possible track is mined, along the jagged rocks of a river bed or thigh deep in oozing, clammy clay.
Men of the Royal Scots Fusiliers and East Lancs together with British and Indian Engineers and British and Chinese artillery swept a roadway through the jungle and captured Mawlu to make another 75 miles
of the Road to Tokyo safe for the Allied advance.
