So interesting in terms of how this portrayed the empire when the British Empire was very much in decline. This clip seems to show the British being in control of the situation of destroying Communist banditry, when in reality, it seems to have been very different.

My father Eric Faulkner is seen at the beginning and end helping the soldiers in and out of the trucks.
