The Chindits were an Allied Special Force formed and lead by General Orde Wingate.  They fought deep behind enemy lines in World War II (1943-44) in Northern Burma against the Japanese.  They were successful in their operation in recapturing Burma from the Japanese. Chindits is a corruption of the Burmese word Chinthe, the Burmese word for the mythical lion guardians of Burmese pagodas.
