Global Watch Party for “Dakota – Air Drops – Kohima,”

In memory of the late Terry O’Halloran, stalwart member of the 31 Squadron RAF Association, and in commemoration of the RAF’s role in the South-east Asia (Burma) campaign of World War Two…..

On You Tube on Sunday August 10^th, at 7pm, there will be the live (and free) Global Watch Party for “Dakota – Air Drops – Kohima,” a documentary instigated, written and presented by Terry in his capacity as voluntary Curator and Historian of the 31 Squadron RAF Association Museum.

A rare light will shine on the brave aviators of 31 and other squadrons and their dangerous tasks of dropping vital and life-saving supplies to the besieged Allied soldiers at Kohima and Imphal, and to Chindits behind enemy lines.

The Premiere will include tributes to Terry, who died on May 3^rd, aged 80, including one by Phil Betts on behalf of the Association.

Here at Blow by Blow Productions – media partners of Terry for many years – we are carrying out his wishes in offering this programme at the time of the 80^th anniversary of VJ Day. Terry believed the roles of these air crews and support teams in Burma was never fully explained to the public.
