Limbang raid : ウィキペディア英語版 | Limbang raid
The Limbang raid was a military engagement between British Royal Marine commandos and insurgents of the North Kalimantan National Army (''Tentara Nasional Kalimantan Utara'': TNKU), on 12 December 1962. After an amphibious assault on the town of Limbang in Sarawak, Borneo, the commandos managed to rescue the hostages being held there by the TNKU. == Prelude ==
On 9 December 1962, as the Brunei Revolt broke out, TNKU militants led by Salleh bin Sambas seized the small town of Limbang. From the police station, they captured several rifles, Sterling submachine guns and one Bren light machine gun. This greatly enhanced their weaponry, as they only been armed with shotguns. They imprisoned the British resident and his wife, along with 12 others, and announced their intention of hanging them on 12 December.
