OPERATION TORCH
BACKGROUND:
In November of 1942, the Rommel's Afrika Korps was pushed to Cirenaica (Libya) by the 8th British Army after the battle of El Alemein. Then the Allies launch the Operation "Torch", the invasion of Morocco and Algeria, to establish a base to prevent the Axis from crossing the Mediterranean and as strategic position for eventual attacks against southern Europe, at the same time they cornered the Afrika Korps and all the Axis forces in North Africa
On November 8, three task forces begin landing troops in North Africa. The Western Task Force, commanded by Gen. George Patton, lands on a 200-mile front between Safi and Port Lyautey. Within two days, the Americans have secured their beachheads at Casablanca and Port Lyautey. The Center Task Force lands near Oran. The landings do not go well, but the task force establishes a secure beachhead and captures the airfield at Tafaraiu by nightfall; American-piloted Spitfires begin flying sorties from the airfield the next day.
The Eastern Task Force lands at Algiers, and the town is quickly captured. By November 15, there are 10,000 German troops in Tunisia and 100 combat planes. The Germans use established French airfields with all-weather runways; the Allies must use temporary runways that are farther from the front. Within days there is serious combat.
