Anyone know which Lines of Communication Polachi near Cochin in south western India would have come under in 1945? Part of Operation Zipper I think. Lionboxer
Hi only saw this today. My records show the following set up as of May 1944 NB: Pollachi is the name in Google Earth - may have been Polachi in WW2 105 L of C Area (H.Q. Bangalore) with under command: 161 L of C Sub-Area (Cochin) 162 L of C Sub-Area (Trichinopoly) 163 L of C Sub-Area (Coimbatore) 164 L of C Sub-Area (Madras Port & Fortress Area) 168 L of C Sub-Area (Vizagapatam) I think Coimbatore is nearer for Pollachi so I think it was 162 L of C Sub-Area RobG
Many thanks for that Rob. Now armed with that information I can (hopefully) start a new phase of research about my father. Lionboxer
