In December 1962, against the backdrop of a rebellion in Brunei, the Royal Marines of L Company, 42 Commando, were instructed to retake the small town of Limbang - which was in rebel hands - and free an unknown number of hostages. Despite encountering difficulties during the planning stages, the Marines launched the raid on the morning of the 12 December 1962. By days end, it was evident that the results of the raid would greatly impact the future and success of the rebellion in Brunei.
This video is dedicated to the memory of:
- Troop Sergeant Walter Macfarlane
- Marine Fred Powell
- Marine Gerald Kierans
- Marine Richard Jennings
- Marine Ronald Formoy

My father was at Limbang. Fortunately, he wasn't in the initial assault, but with the HQ Signals (Signals Sgt.) who followed up. He was in radio contact during the fighting... Not much fun listening to your oppos being shot at. Most of the casualties were from a rebel with a Bren gun.... Ironic. He was very proud when his old company CO led the Falklands landings.

Marine Jennings was a personal friend of mine and we had joined up in 1960 as sixteen year old Boys. My outstanding memory is of him singing 'Runaway' by Del Shannon in a Pub in Exmouth. I never dreamt that just over a year after we finished Training he would be killed. I often think about him and how his life would have panned out. I will see him at the final RV.

At the outbreak of the Confrontation, I was on HMS Blackpool anti-submarine Frigate, which was in Fremantle West Australia for the Empire Games. We had to leave and sail for Singapore arriving in December 62. we took on board some Gurkhas and dropped them off at Awat Awat, Sarawak. We had heard about Limbang and the success of the Royal Marines. Royal Navy men,[Naval Party Alpha], were also doing patrols in Sarawak due to a shortage of Soldiers/marines. I as Diving Store keeper had to be picked up by an LCA, {landing craft attack] with 2 sets of dive equipt. then transferred to a long boat with 2 SBS marines, and taken through the Jungle rivers to 'Sundar Bazaar,' where I was ordered to search for a lost rifle by 'Gilly Howe' the SBS sergeant., search only took 7 minutes, Gilly said 'did you see the Salt Water Crocs, and the Booties burst out laughing. Great to work with them, but had to return to the ship!

Being in mainland Malaysia (Johore) at the time I remember this well. The Rebels had captured police bren guns and One was fired into the assaulting marines as they came of their craft, which I understood at the time were landing craft style local ferries. Each one had a Vickers mmg for armament. Also I knew a retired British school teacher who had been a teacher at Limbang until he retired and moved to Johore with his Malay wife and daughter. He told me he had contacted British HQ in Singapore offering to act as a Guide to approach Limbang from the jungle after landing down stream from the town. His info and offer were not taken up!

A fitting end for a remarkable man.

Whilst he never went into great detail of any combat, he did give me a fairly good overview of the "Emergency." In 1989 he also took us up the River Sarawak to visit some of the villages whose men stoodwith and with whose aid the British forces may well have lost these Malaysian States.

I served under the command of a troop sergeant in the late 70s who had fought in Brunei a very humble and calm man. The sultans of Brunei and Sarawak have long connections to the British forces.

Great video. Just a small point, the correct term is „company commander“ not „commanding officer“.

@pegasusns07
@pegasusns07 2 года назад
Unfortunately wrong terminology. An officer in command of a British rifle company is called the OC or Officer Commanding, L Company. There is only one CO in a battalion/regiment/commando and that is the Lt Colonel who is the Commanding Officer. Your series is an excellent idea, but please check your military terms as mistakes with basics undermine your credibility.

Speed was required to ensure rescue of hostages - wading through grade 1 jungle just ain't a walk in the park!

@@Peoples_Republic_of_Devonshire Thanks PRD. Do you have any background info about this incident? I looked up the map of the area and it looked like they could have approached from the east, a 2 km tab. Don’t know how dense but looks possible in a few hours. Was there a time limit or just the difficulty of the terrain?

@@PersonalityMalfunction the rebels were about to start killing hostages iirc, a 2km yomp through dense jungle would have taken hours so by the time they'd have arrived, no more hostages

Were I ever taken hostage and in need of rescue, I would hope that my rescuers were Israeli or British forces! That apart, I had never heard of this battle, and am surprised at the British casualty figures, which indicate the level of resistance encountered!
