New Book Reveals the Overlooked Story of SOE's Operation

Mr. AAE Trofimov is proud to present his only book, "A Most Irregular War: SOE Burma, Major Trofimov's Diary 1944-45." This is a rare and unvarnished first-hand account of clandestine warfare in the jungles of Burma during World War II.

Drawing from the detailed war diaries of Major AAE Trofimov MC, Croix de Guerre, this historical transcript transports us deep behind enemy lines, where Allied operatives and indigenous Karen fighters waged a relentless campaign against the retreating Japanese Army.

As the tide of war shifted in favor of the Allies in early 1945, small Special Operations Executive (SOE) units were parachuted into Burma to organize and lead resistance forces. Tasked with recruiting, training, and arming local Karen tribespeople, we will see how Major Trofimov and his fellow Operation Character operatives disrupted Japanese supply lines, ambushed enemy forces, and played an important role in the Burma campaign's final battles. From guerrilla warfare to full-scale combat-this book will highlight their journey as they found themselves directly in the path of Japan's retreating armies.

Through Trofimov's diary entries, we gain a visceral sense of the war's harsh realities. From jungle survival, brutal engagements, and the fierce loyalty of the Karen people, who risked everything to fight for their homeland-this candid and touching reflection offers an intimate look at the emotional and physical toll of World War II, the camaraderie between operatives, and the complexities of post-war promises made to Burma's indigenous fighters.

Moreover, with an insightful introduction by historian Prof. GH Bennett and a foreword by Dr. Richard Duckett, A Most Irregular War becomes a crucial historical point on a lesser-known chapter of World War II-that sheds light on the legacy of SOE's operations in the Far East, the lasting impact on Burma's Karen population, and the personal sacrifices made by those who served.

If you are a history enthusiast, military scholar, or anyone fascinated by true accounts of wartime bravery, "A Most Irregular War: SOE Burma, Major Trofimov's Diary 1944-45" is an essential addition to the literature of World War II.

The book is available in paperback, hardcover, and eBook formats through major retailers, including Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/173944020X/.
