Chad Cross of Military Merit

Republic of Chad: Cross of Military Merit. 
The Cross was established in 1966. It is awarded 
to military personnel for exceptional actions or 
acts of bravery during military operations in the 
context of an armed conflict or in peace keeping 
operations.
The Cross is scarce as it was mainly bestowed to
French casualties (aprox. 150 dead and injured) 
who took part in the Operation Limousin
(1969-1971)against the National Liberation Front 
of Chad that was waging guerrilla warfare and 
threatening the capital N'Djamena. 
The operation was the largest anti-insurgency 
operation since the Algerian war, but also the 
first external operation of the French army in 
Africa.
