This paper focuses on the lessons learned from examination of the June 1982 Israeli Defense Forces invasion of Lebanon-- Operation Peace for Galilee. A brief description of the national goals of the campaign and an historical perspective with respect to previous Israeli wars establishes the introduction. These are followed by summaries of the ground, air and naval operations for the campaign. Lessons learned from analyses of Israeli military operations and innovations are reported and implications for modern conventional warfare, which may involve the projection of US forces into the Middle East in the future, are drawn therefrom.
