What Infantry Regiment helped with the counquest of what is now Indonesia?
Dutch East Indies campaign The Dutch East Indies Campaign of 1941–42 was the conquest of the Dutch East Indies (present-day Indonesia) by forces from the Empire of Japan in the early days of the Pacific Campaign of World War II. Forces from the Allies attempted unsuccessfully to defend the islands. The East Indies were targeted by the Japanese for their rich oil resources which would become a vital asset during the war. The campaign and subsequent three and a half year Japanese occupation was also a major factor in the end of Dutch colonial rule in the region.
Östergötland Infantry Regiment The Östergötland Infantry Regiment (Swedish: "Östgöta infanteriregemente" ) was a Swedish Army infantry regiment that traced its origins back to the 16th century. It was merged with another unit to form a new regiment, the Life Grenadier Regiment, in 1791. The regiment's soldiers were recruited from the province of Östergötland.
