Malleson mission
The Malleson mission was a military action by a small autonomous force of British troops, led by General Wilfrid Malleson, operating against Bolshevik forces over large distances in Transcaspia (modern Turkmenistan) between 1918 and 1919.〔Sargent, Michael."British Military Involvement in Transcaspia: 1918-1919".

== Background ==
In 1918 Russian Turkestan was in chaos. The Bolshevik Tashkent Soviet was under attack from various groups, including cossacks, who had claimed independence for their respective regions. In addition, there were dealings between the White Russian forces and the British.〔Sargent, Michael."British Military Involvement in Transcaspia: 1918-1919". The Defence Academy of the United Kingdom, Camberley, UK. April 2004 (Executive summary p 1 )〕 Geopolitically, from the British point of view, the area was of interest to them because of its proximity to British India and Persia and their general sphere of influence. While Russia remained an ally this was not an issue for the British, but with the Bolshevik revolution of 1917, it became one. To add to the complex situation, around 28,000 German and Austrian soldiers were in the area, as prisoners of war.〔Sargent, Michael."British Military Involvement in Transcaspia: 1918-1919". The Defence academy of the United Kingdom, Camberley, UK. April 2004 (Executive summary p 2 )〕
