Overview:
It came as a surprise to the French General Staff that the Italians had breached their southern borders. Although there were troops positioned there, they weren’t of the caliber desired by most commanders. Supplies for the southern army were marginal, morale was low and competent leadership was lacking. Things weren’t much better for the Italians when the order came to advance on the French frontier. They had two things in their favor: the element of surprise and a belief they would win.Attacker: Italian (66th Infantry Division)
Defender: French (4th Army)
