  • Description: "The Burmese insurgency is a complex ethnic insurgency composed of as many as 14 different ethnic groups. While there is a fair amount of material available about some of the ethnic groups, such as the Karen, Kachin and Shan, other groups, such as the Naga, Arakan and Pao, have virtually nothing written or published about their struggle. Some of the groups fight with primitive weapons such as spears, bows and arrows; others, such as the Wa, use machine guns, mortars, artillery and even antiaircraft artillery. Many of the groups have thousands of guerrilla fighters and are well-organized militarily and politically; others are few in number and have little organization." (Special Warfare) The operations, missions and goals of the insurgency groups in Burma are detailed.
