This compilation of engagements depicts the 19th Battalion of the Karenni National Liberation Front (KNLF) as they engage government forces in Myanmar. Some of the more mundane realities of a jungle campaign, such as sleeping in the rain, are also depicted.

"Karenni" refers to the Karen people, an ethnic people from the mountains in the Karen state of Myanmar. They are in a situation reminiscent of the Montagnards during the Vietnam War. While their fight for sovereignty has been ongoing, the anti-junta conflict has increased their activity.
