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.
THE SEVEN GREAT BATTLES highlighted
here and the many other, big and little
that aren't mentioned have brought us
step by step closer to victory. The luccesi
of the SIX WAR LOAN DRIVES already
contpleted hat contributed immeasurably,
too.
BUT TOTAL VICTORY U still not ours.
There are still many battles ahead un
taught unpaid for. You can help win
them by buying WAR BONDS MORE
BOfjDS in the 7th WAR LOAN.
Third of a series commemorating SEVEN GREAT
BATTLES OF WORLD WAR II published in the in
terest of a GREATER AMERICA. Next week, the
