April 2002 - WW2 Syria

On 27 April 2002 we fought a WW2 wargame with 20mm miniatures at Don Melius's house in the South Bay. I don't remember the scenario, but from the photos it appears that Commonwealth forces are attacking Vichy French forces holding an old fortress. Both sides have armoured vehicles, so my best guess is the battle takes place in July 1941 during Operation Exporter (aka the Syria-Lebanon Campaign).

Don's sand table in his garage was the star attraction. Richard Pullin provided Commonwealth forces, and I'm fairly sure we used the Rapid Fire rule set.
