15th Infantry Division (India)

The 15th Infantry Division was an infantry division of the Indian Army during World War II. Raised in India in 1941, its initial role was internal security and training.

The division first saw active service in Burma during 1942 and 1943 as part of the British Fourteenth Army. It participated in the defense of Imphal and Kohima during the Japanese offensive in 1944, playing a crucial role in halting the Japanese advance on the central front. It subsequently participated in the advance into Burma, including the battles of Mandalay and Meiktila.

After the war, the division remained part of the Indian Army and continued to serve in various roles and locations. Specific post-war details of its activities and deployments would require further research.
