In March 1944, Japan’s unexpected invasion of India encountered its first major resistance at Sangshak, where the untested 50th Indian Parachute Brigade held an isolated Naga village against repeated assaults. Fight Your Way Out recounts this little-known but pivotal week-long siege—drawn from first-hand testimony—along with the brigade’s arduous breakout and the experiences of those captured. The battle delayed the Japanese advance at a critical moment, shaping the eventual Allied victories at Kohima and Imphal.
