'''No. 51 Commando''' was a [[battalion]] sized [[British Commando]] unit of the [[British Army during the Second World War]]. The Commando was formed in 1940, from volunteers from [[Palestine]]. The Commando fought against the Italians in [[Ethiopian Empire|Abyssinia]] and [[Eritrea]] before it was absorbed into the [[Middle East Commando]].
+
-
 
+
-
==Background==
+
-
The commandos were formed in 1940, by the order of [[Winston Churchill]] the British [[Prime Minister of the United Kingdom|Prime Minister]]. He called for specially trained troops that would "develop a reign of terror down the enemy coast".<ref>Chappell, p.5</ref>  At first they were a small force of volunteers who carried out small raids against enemy occupied territory, <ref>Chappell, p.3</ref> but by 1943 their role had changed into lightly equipped assault Infantry which specialised in spearheading amphibious landings.<ref>Moreman, p.8</ref>
+
-
 
+
-
The man initially selected as the overall commander of the force was [[Admiral]] Sir [[Roger Keyes]] himself a veteran of the landings at [[Gallipoli Campaign|Galipoli]] and the [[Zeebrugge raid]] in the [[First World War]].<ref>Chappell, p.6</ref> Keyes resigned in October 1941 and was replaced by Admiral [[Louis Mountbatten, 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma|Louis Mountbatten]].<ref name=haw48/>
+
-
 
+
-
By the autumn of 1940 more than 2,000 men had volunteered for Commando training, and what became known as the [[Special Service Brigade]] was formed into 12 units called Commandos.<ref name=haw48>Haskew, p.48</ref> Each Commando would number around 450 men commanded by a [[Lieutenant Colonel]]. They were sub divided into [[Troops]] of 75 men and further divided into 15 man [[Section (military unit)|sections]].<ref name=haw48/> Commandos were all volunteers seconded from other British Army regiments and retained their own [[cap badge]]s and remained on their regimental roll for pay.<ref name=mo12>Moreman, p.12</ref> All volunteers went through the six week intensive commando course at [[Achnacarry]]. The course in the Scottish Highlands concentrated on fitness, speed marches, weapons training, map reading, climbing, small boat operations and demolitions both by day and by night.<ref>van der Bijl, p.12</ref> 
+
-
 
+
-
By 1943 the Commandos had moved away from small raiding operations and had been formed in [[Brigade]]s of assault infantry to spearhead future Allied landing operations. Three units were left un-brigaded to carry out smaller scale raids.<ref>Moreman, pp.84&ndash;85</ref>
+
-
 
+
-
In December 1940 a [[Middle East]] Commando depot was formed with the responsibility of training and supplying reinforcements for the Commando units in the Middle East.<ref>Moreman, p.19</ref>
+
-
 
+
-
==No. 51 Commando formation==
+
-
No. 51 Commando was raised in October 1940, under the command of [[Lieutenant Colonel]] [[Henry Cater]] from 300 Palestinian volunteers from No. 1 Company, [[Auxiliary Military Pioneer Corps]].<ref>Moreman, p.18</ref> The Commando fought against the Italians in the [[East African Campaign (World War II)|East African Campaign]] in [[Ethiopian Empire|Abyssinia]] and [[Eritrea]].<ref>Chappell,p.48</ref>
+
-
 
+
-
In 1941, [[Winston Churchill]] ordered the formation of the [[Middle East Commando]], made up from the commandos that remained in the Middle East.<ref name=Chappell17>Chappell, p17</ref><ref name=Parker54>Parker, p. 54.</ref> There were very few men left by this time, what men there were, were formed into six troops.<ref name=Chappell17/> No. 1 and 2 Troops were made up of [[History of the SAS|L Detachment]] based at Geneifa under the command of [[David Stirling]],<ref name=Parker54/><ref>Shortt and McBride 1981, pp. 6–9</ref> while 60 men from the disbanded [[No. 11 (Scottish) Commando]] made up No. 3 Troop.  No. 51 Commando made up No. 4 and No. 5 Troops and the [[Special Boat Section]] made up No. 6 Troop.<ref name=Parker54/> These designations, however, were largely ignored as the men referred to themselves by their old designations.<ref name=Chappell17/>
