Wikipedia
The Syrian Armed Forces fought in the 1948 Arab-Israeli War ( against Israel ), and were involved in a number of military coups.
Between 1948 and 1967, a series of military coups destroyed the stability of the government and any remaining professionalism within the armed forces.
Further coups followed, each attended by a purge of the officer corps to remove supporters of the losers from the force.
