1st Czechoslovak Armoured Brigade
The 1st Czechoslovak Independent Armoured Brigade Group ((チェコ語:Československá samostatná obrněná brigáda, Slovak: Československá samostatná obrnená brigáda)) was an armoured unit of expatriate Czechoslovaks organised and equipped by the United Kingdom during the Second World War in 1943.
The brigade landed in Normandy in August 1944 and was given the mission of containing the German-held port of Dunkirk for the rest of the war in Europe. In May 1945, the brigade moved to Czechoslovakia and was absorbed into the Czechoslovak Army.
==Formation==
The 1st Czechoslovak Armoured Brigade was created on 1 September 1943, when the 1st Czechoslovak Independent Brigade (itself originally formed as 1st Czechoslovak Mixed Brigade in July 1940 from remnants of the French Army's 1st Czechoslovak Division) converted to armour and was redesignated as the 1st Czechoslovak Independent Armoured Brigade Group (this was often simplified to 1st Czechoslovak Armoured Brigade or abbreviated 1st CIABG). The brigade was under the command of Major General Alois Liška.〔Nigel Thomas, ''Foreign Volunteers of the Allied Forces 1939-45'', p. 5, London:Osprey Publishing, 1998, ISBN 1-85532-136-X.〕 The motorised infantry battalion of the brigade traced its lineage back to Czechoslovak units that had fought in Libya and Lebanon, notably the 11th Infantry Battalion which took part in the defence of Tobruk.〔(Nase noviny - The port of Dunkirk in World War II - The Czechoslovaks at Dunkirk 1944-45 )〕
