Gideon Force, British
SOE force which comprised 50 officers, 20 British NCOs, 800 men from the Sudan Frontier Battalion, and 800 semi-trained Abyssinian troops. It was formed, and named, by
Lt-Colonel Wingate at the start of the
East African campaign in January 1941. It achieved its objective of establishing a base for
Emperor Haile Selassie in the Abyssinian province of Gojjam and then escorting him back to his capital, Addis Ababa. With it Wingate fought a guerrilla campaign of great skill and daring.
