THE BATTLE OF KASSERINE PASS Bottleneck of Tunisia From November 0, 1042, when American trops first landed in French Morocco May 13, 1943 when the last German unit ; surrendered at Tunisia the spotlight of world news focused on North Africa. By February 1943, in a giant pincer move ment, the British and the Americans had . squeezed Nazi General Rommel and his famed Afrika Korps but of Algiers, Libya,. . Egynt until they were bottled up. in the small, strategic area of Tunisia. Then came ' the Battle of Kasserine Pass. Like most bottlenecks, Kasrerine Pass is '; narrow, treacherous. A deep rocky valley between steep cliffs leading from the hills of Algiers into the rolling coastal plains of Tunisia. Rommel, the wily "Deseit Fox," knew it-was his best means of escape from t Tunisia and on February 17 1943 he hur led his veteran Panzer and Infantry Divi- , sions at the United States rear guard army. Four death-strewn days of bloody, blttor fighting followed, and by February 21st Kasserine Pass was in Rommel's hands. His tanks and artillery sifted through this rock ribbed defile toward the open country of Algiers. 1 Our African, gain's were seriously imperiled. : To turn this costly defeat into victory was a must. ' (Jnce through Kasserine Pass. Rom mel's forces' wpuld be free of the binding ; Maws of the Allied, pincers. .. - To hammer Rommel back through this bot . -tleheck was vital. Allied counterattacks stiffened.- With planes, tanks, artillery and "' infantry they stemmed the flow of German armored columns. On February 24th, the tido turned -. . . Axis .forces began to back 1 water and retreat through the narrow pass. ' On. February 20th . . after a night-long 1 artillery barrage Kasserine was ours again and the. crack German Afrika Korps had been caught in the trap of Tunisia. . Two-and-a-half months later the Germans surrendered in North Africa. One continent had been cleared of the Nazi menace. Without the brave resistance the courage the dogged determination of our boys at -Kasserine Pass, the annihilation of the Afrika Korps and the conquest of Italy might ' never have bin accomplished.
