High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Operation Lustre was an action during World War II, involving the dispatch of British, Australian, New Zealand and Polish troops from Egypt to Greece in March and April 1941, in response to the failed Italian invasion and the looming threat of German intervention, revealed through Ultra. It was seen as politically unacceptable not to support an ally under threat. Greece had defeated the Italian invasion and was therefore Britain's only effective ally in Europe. In addition, use of Greek airfields would put the Romanian oilfields, vital to Germany's war effort, within reach of Allied bombers. General Archibald Wavell, the Allied commander in North Africa, was told in January 1941 that support for Greece must take precedence over all operations in the Middle East and this order was reinforced in February.
