      Fact File : Syrian Campaign


      8 June to 12 July 1941

      Theatre: North Africa and Middle East
      Area: Syria
      Players: Allies: Two brigades of the Free French Infantry Division; British 6th Infantry Division based in northern Palestine; 7th Australian Infantry Division based in Haifa; 5th Indian Infantry Brigade, 10th Indian Infantry Division and Habforce, based in Iraq. Vichy France: Armée du Levant under General Henri Dentz; Lebanon Command and South Syria Command, including 6th Regiment, French Foreign Legion
      Outcome: Operation Exporter, the Allied invasion of Syria, was a costly and bitter campaign but it eliminated a potential threat to the Allied rear.
