Raids: Puerto Bolivar Peruvian paras end a border war

xavierb

Hi all:
Gordon Rottman in his Elite booklet on WW II Airborne tactics mention very in passim about how the Peruvian paras (trained by Italians) fought against the Ecuadorians in 1941. I did some digging and it appears that there was a border war between the 2 countries and the Peruvians used their paras to great effect and help to end the border conflict.

In any case, this operation certainly merits a RAIDS title and this just screams I wanna know more
