Then came Operation Matador.

The company had already lost twelve servicemen since the beginning of the war, including eight members in Operation Matador in May.

During Operation Matador, all members of one squad were killed or wounded in 96 hours of fighting.

The Malaya Command was responsible for the planning of Operation Matador.

Operation Matador may refer to:

Operation Matador (1941)

The British had plans for a pre-emptive invasion of southern Thailand, named Operation Matador, to forestall Japanese landings, but decided not to use them.

The codename "Operation Matador" was used no less than six times by various armies and intelligence agencies.

The essence of Operation Matador was that Allied forces would advance into Thailand and fight the Japanese there.

It followed Operation Matador, and preceded Operation New Market.
