  DJIDJELLI [II:537a]   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
The ancient town of Djidjelli stood high up, where the citadel still stands, on a rocky peninsula which juts out between two bays, one to the west, small and very sheltered, the other lying to the east in a deep basin divided from the open sea by a line of reefs.
The present town was built after the destruction of the Turkish town by an earthquake in 1856, and lies along the sea near to the large easterly bay.
The fall of the Turkish Government in 1830 gave the people of Djidjelli their independence which they kept until 1839, when the sack of a French trading-post made Marshal Valée, the Governor-General of Algeria, decide to have the town occupied, on 13 May 1839.

 BBC - WW2 People's War - A Letter Home - A2945928
From Bougie to Bone, the actual battle area only a mere twelve hours steaming away, from Bone to Djidjelli, which was to be our base, very few ships were there then, but now I am afraid the story is different.
From Djidjelli back to Bone, embarked troops and supplies and learned our next port of call was Bizerte, we did not know whether fighting was still in progress, we really expected anything, only four set out and during the night picked up more ships.
We left Bone for Djidjelli arriving the next morning, only to learn we were leaving for a destination unknown to us.

To some degree, this concern was caused by the fact that the Allied forces involved needed, but lacked, adequate training in combined operations.
A combined training center was established at the Algerian port of Djidjelli.
From here the British 51st Division and 78th Division were able to participate in combined training; three complete naval rehearsals and one combined rehearsal were carried out with these forces, the only elements in the Eastern Task Force to be involved in such full rehearsals.

The grateful natives invited Aroudj to become their "king".
