Overview:

The Japanese opened their offensive into the Dutch East Indies on January 11, 1942 using combined sea and airborne forces. This area had only an ad-hoc force made up of a few Dutch company groups, some British AA units and some RAF personnel armed as infantry. With only a five month reserve of fuel oil, the Japanese military machine desperately needed the Dutch oil production facilities to enable them to prosecute their war aims. The 1st Parachute Brigade was ordered to capture the oil refineries and the nearby airfield intact at Palembang, Sumatra.
Attacker: Japanese (1st Parachute Brigade)
