    Default A really outstanding large scale offensive campaign

    Citing Omarali50 in part:
    Though other than Slim's campaign in Burma, there is no example I can think off the top of my head where they conducted a really outstanding large scale offensive campaign..
    That is why the conquest of Italian occupied Abyssinia (Ethiopia plus) is so interesting, with the 4th & 5th Indian Infantry Divisions deployed alongside a real mixture of other Imperial formations and some allies. See:http://council.smallwarsjournal.com/...ad.php?t=24597

    The author is preparing a paperback edition so it may reach you one day.
