(Continued from Pai 4)
I departed from Algiers Just
after midnight on February 12.
and, holding several confer
' ences on the way, arrived at
General Tredendall's headquar
ters on the afternoon of the
thirteenth.
It was my first trip as a four
atar general, to which tempor
ary grade I was promoted on
February 11. I was still a lieu
tenant colonel in the regular
army.
I found a number of things
that were disturbing. The first
of these was a certain compla
eency, illustrated by an un
conscionable delay in perfecting
defensive positions in the pass
es.
Lack of training and experi
ence on the part of command
ers was responsible.
I spent the remainder of an
exh a u s 1 1 n g night conferring
with commanders and noting
the matters that I wanted to
take up with General Freden-
dall. Our little inspecting party
started back before dawn, but
we were delayed at Sbeitla by
an outbreak of sporadic firing
ahead of us.
After a reconnaissance in
force, in which my aide, Cap
tain Lee, and Lieutenant Col
onel Akers composed the assault
wave, while I with a .45 formed
the mobile reserve, we remount
ed our cars and made our way
through the town without inci
dent. A short time later my
driver fell asleep and we end
ed up in a shallow ditch, but
with no casualties.
Upon arrival at corps head
quarters I found that the Ger
man attack had already struck.
It was too late to make change.-,
in dispositions.
Realizing by nightfall that re
inforcements in men and equip
ment would be needed quickly
and urgently, I hastened back
to headquarters to hurry them
forward.
We scraped the barrel and
then I started back to the front.
During the withdrawal the
Americans fought a series of in
effective, though gallant, delay
ing actions on the way back to
ward Kasserine Pass, a spot
clearly indicated as one to be
strongly held.
But there was a local lack of
appreciation of exactly what
was happening and the troops
assigned were neither numer
ous enough nor skillful enough
to hold that strong position.
The enemy armor pushed on
through the hastily constructed
defense in the pass.
Finally, however, in spite of
auprise and relatively large
losses, our troops rallied in good
fashion and fell back to cover
the important center of Tebes
a and the routes leading north
ward from Kasserine toward Le
Kef.
The enemy's advance, by the
twenty-second, was completely
stalled.
On the evening of the twenty-second
I discussed the situ
ation personally with General
Fredendall and told him that
the enemy was no longer capa
ble of offensive action.
I Informed him that he was
perfectly safe in taking any rea
sonahle risk in launching local
counter-attacks that could he
properly supported by his artil
lery. By next morning it became
apparent to everybody that the
German was beginning his re
treat. The enemy moved rapidly
by night and, favored again by
cloud cover during the day,
successfully withdrew a large
part of his attacking force.
Technically, our embarrass
ment resulted from four prin
cipal causes.
The first and vastly most im
portant of these was the inrs
capable conditions resulting
from failure in our lung-shot
gamble to capture Tunis quick
ly
The second major reason was
faulty work by intelligence
agencies. Staffs were too prone
to take one isolated piece of In
telligence In which they Impli
citly believed and to shut their
eyes to any contrary possibility
The third reason was the fail
ure to comprehend clearly the
capabilities of the enemy anl
the best measures for meeting
them.
A fourth cause was greenness,
particularly among command
ers. The American divisions in
volved had not had the bene
fit of the intensive training pro
grams instituted In the United
States following the actual out
break of the war. They were
mainly divisions that had been
quickly shipped to the United
Kingdom, and since transporta
tion facilities had not yet ac
quired their later efficiency.
they had been separated Irom
their organic equipment for
long periods.
These lessons were dearly
bought, but they were valuable.
Eventually, the cost was re
duced, since most of our per
sonnel losses were in prisoners,
whom we largely recovered at
the end of the war.
We suffered casualties in
Dersonnel and equipment, but
by the time the enemy had suc
ceeded in retiring to his former
positions his losses in both ca
tegories were equal to ours.
American losses from February
14 to 23 were 192 killed, 2624
wounded, 2459 prisoners and
missing.
...
However, the stage was now
almost completely set for the
final all-out effort against the
enemy position.
Improving weather was eag
erly seized upon by the air forc
es to harass the enemy's line of
communications between Africa
and Italy, and the Axis position
grew more precarious. Under
our growing air superiority our
naval forces also pushed forward
their bases and operations and
added to the enemy's difficulties.
The results were speedily de
cisive.
On the left the American II
Corps, with some detachments
of French "Goumiers," advanc
ed magnificently through tough
going and captured Bizerte on
May 7.
Just to the southward the Brit
ish First Army, tinder General
Anderson, carrying out the
main effort, was in Tunis at ap
proximately the same time that
the II Corps reached Bizerte.
Some fighting continued un
til the twelfth but by the fol
low day, except for a few strag
glers in the mountains, the only
living Germans left in Tunisia
were safely within prison rages
