The present condition of the KOIRENGEI airfield is not good. But I appreciate the effort made by the present GOVT to preserve it as an important site of WW2 .

If this airfield is repaired and put into its near original look, then it really can make a difference. The war office in Britan can be contacted and let some old aircraft brought from England to land mimicking the old times.. Oh that can create another big name and bring importance to this old airfield. It is just my thought… Let’s hope this comes true… Require a big effort from the people of Manipur..
My Grand father was an INA captain but in Manipur too many people want’s to claimed to be INA and corruption within the system.He is not known by the Gov’t.He was residing at indo burma villages.Every 90 to above years knew little of him.This is how freedom strugglers were treated.
Bright back memories if my grandfather and his team who raved all odds against the Japanese. Entire brigade was wiped out in Japnese bombing leave a few soldiers . Just turned those pages in his diary. What a thrill went down to read all that happened. Really awesome and brave civilians who stood tall in the face of war and helped the Indian soldiers match the Japanese forces. Really amazing and tribute to all the fallen martyers. Jai hind
