Flagged as incomplete[edit]

The page didn't link to much relevant geographical information, so I linked to Marjayoun town, as well as clarified the start of the article somewhat with additional info & citations I found elsewhere on English & French Wikipedias. The bigger issue, however, is that the article says almost nothing about the actual battle. – Miranche^T C 20:21, 8 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

2/5th Australian Field Regiment[edit]
