1 Jan 1917 Jahr - Advance on Nakhl Mubarak

Beschreibung:

The Emir Abdullah took his army to Wadi ’Ais and from there he could still cover Yanbu while being in a position to attack the railway. In the first days of the new year, Feisal led his army northwards from Nakhl Mubarak. His force included 1,200 tribesmen of the Agayl and also members of the Juhayna, the Harb and the Billi. Further tribesmen joined the army as they travelled and soon the force was over 8,000 strong. It was the largest Arab army in living memory. Ablaze p38
