During the Burma Campaign of World War II, approximately 15,000 Ghanaian soldiers, who were part of the Gold Coast Regiment, served in various capacities. The exact number of Ghanaian casualties remains uncertain, but estimates suggest that several hundred lost their lives due to combat, disease, and harsh conditions. These soldiers played a crucial role in the Allied efforts, enduring significant hardships in the challenging terrain of Burma. Their contributions are commemorated as part of Ghana's military history.
