Overview:
The initial phase of the Commonwealth campaign against the Vichy French forces in Syria was proving tougher than expected. Merdjayoun was symbolic of this as the town, located only a few miles north of the Syrian border, had already been captured and lost by Australians. Unwilling to again lose this vital position, the French stationed Legionnaires and tanks to defend the town. Equally committed, the Australians formed up the best part of a battalion to assault Merdjayoun. Two companies of Australians from the 2/25th Battalion moved to attack from the west, while Australian pioneers demonstarted from the south to tie the Vichy garrison down.Attacker: Australian (A and B Company, 2/25th Battalion)
Defender: Vichy French (Company 9 and 10, 6eme and elements from 6eme Chasseurs d'Afrique)
