VERSION 1.3
Background
----------------
By February 1941 the British were in a position
to mount a large-scale offensive.At the time the offensive started, the
Indian 4th and 5th divisions were stationed in the Sudan. In
Kenya the units were more diversely organized and of more varied composition.
Of the 77,000 troops in the area, 27,000 were European South Africans;
6,000,Europeans serving in East and West African forces;33,000, East Africans;
9,000, West Africans; and
2,000, of various nationalities.
The British plan called for an advance eastward from
the Sudan through northern Ethiopia to Eritrea and the Red Sea, together
with an approximately simultaneous advance northward from Kenya through
southern Ethiopia to the capital, Addis Ababa, and also eastward from Kenya
to Italian Somaliland. The terrain in many parts of this area affords a
striking contrast to
the Western Desert. Much of Ethiopia is mountainous with wide and torrential
rivers. The country favors highly trained troops, and it also gave the
Ethiopian guerrillas full scope.
