Took it that there were "who, what and where issues. Though it seems I'm a "A day late and a dollar short", here are two maps and index of symbols from the USMA at West Point, NY with unit ID in this case under the IDF Southern Command. And I included your source again showing the IDF OOB. Did find an interesting story about how 4 IDF P-51's were used to cut lines of communications using their props just ahead of the two main Para drops. It seems El-Arish was a site of a major air battle in the Sinai War and I couldn't find anything much on El-Jiridi.

Is this ref worth keeping?
