Operation Torch was the first allied amphibious invasion of WWII and the first step in operations that culminated in British-American footholds on continental Europe. For American forces, it was the first fight in the European theater. In the initial stages, 110,000 British and American troops, hundreds of ships, and about 160 carrier-based aircraft squared off against Vichy French forces of 120,000 troops, fortified coastal positions, various warships, and about 160 aircraft, as well as German U-boats and Luftwaffe bombers.
