Suez Crisis 1956
Royal Engineers in Port Said in Egypt build a Bailey Bridge over the Suez Canal 1956
These British troops were posted in Egypt to fight in what became known as the Suez Crisis, a failed military adventure which attempted to regain international control of the Suez Canal, precipitated by the nationalization of the canal by Egypts President Nasser in October 1956. The international action was led by an Israeli attack, followed by the landing of British and French troops. The result...a Soviet protest, domestic opposition and non-support from America, led to the withdrawl of troops and Edens resignation. Even after stepping down, Eden maintained that his actions to regain control of the Suez Canal were justified. The crisis strained relations between Britain, France, the US and the Commonwealth for some time to come
