Overview:
In mid-December 1942, in Tunisia, the Army of Africa, finally united with the Allies, mounted the first offensive of the French army since the Defeat. It targeted the town of Pont-du-Fahs in order to deprive the Axis of an important road crossroads. The rugged terrain and poor weather favored the rustic colonial infantry and the Italian enemy, little known, is in all cases underestimated. The operation mobilized a meager division which formed several mixed groups of infantry and artillery, reinforced by some Allied additions including British armored cars. First objective, Jebel Ben-Saidane. The action was delayed and did not begin until the 20th, certainly in a satisfactory manner. But the next day, the situation deteriorated on the main axis.Attacker: Free French / British (Tirailleurs of the 7th Regiment of Moroccan Tirailleurs, artillerymen of the 67th Regiment d'Artillerie d'Afrique and armored cars of the Derbyshire Yeomanry)
Defender: Italian (Elements of the 1st Mountain Infantry Division)
