February 1937 A.D.  The Road to Mandalay—Victory at Sea, Episode 25

The Japanese invade China during 1936, but the Japanese are not satisfied and they invade Indochina and Thailand, enabling the invasion of Burma.

Eventually, they "came back to Mandalay", and the first supplies traveled the road to hordes of cheering Chinese.
