Operation Torch

52MIN

On this Sunday, November 8th, 1942, an Anglo-American armada of 120,000 men is approaching the coasts of North Africa. Operation Torch, secretly designed by Winston Churchill and President Roosevelt, is a strategic bet. The goal is to relieve Stalin’s red Army, their ally who’s struggling in Stalingrad, by forcing Hitler to mobilize more men in North Africa. The success of Operation Torch and the assault seems like a very risky bet.
