[edit] Incomplete list

Dave-

There is certainly no harm is this page. As The Great Helmsman said 'Let a Thousand Flowers Bloom,'

On the other hand, it is simply a subset of the Military Operations list. Do we need this one too?

At the least, this page should be linked to the other one. Is there an article on Alligator Warfare? Could you provide one as a header to this list? Are all these operations listed on the Military Operation list.

I have an entry for all these operations on my Mac and will add them to the Vast Database as the Muse strikes me.

Should Axis and Allied assults be listed cronologically or should there be seperate lists under the Theatres? --Philip Baird Shearer 11:20, 18 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] World War I

Would Gallipoli qualify as a WWI amphibious assault operation? I seem to recall there was also an amphibious landing planned in support of Third Battle of Ypres -- involved landing tanks on barges somewhere beyond Nieuport. I think they got as far as practicing to climb sea-walls in the tanks. I don't know if it had a codename. Geoff 07:01, 4 Mar 2004 (UTC)

No, it did not have a codename. Trust me, I know. This page would make me get off my dead butt and make entries for all the names mentioned. Of course that would involve me snapping out of my lethargy. [[PaulinSaudi 11:49, 16 Sep 2004 (UTC)]]

[edit] Amphibious assault operations

What is an "Amphibious assault"? A definitionis needed.

Is it the crossing of a sea or the crossing of a river. If the latter how big does the river have to be?
Does an unopposed landing count as an assault?
