Operation Krohcol
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Operation Krohcol was a British operation in 1942 to move into Siam just after the Japanese attack on Malaya during World War II.
It was named Krohcol as it was a column operating on the Kroh–Patani road. It crossed the frontier and met some opposition from the Thais. They occupied positions a short distance within Thailand, and were compelled to withdraw by 11 December.
