THE FOURTH YEAR began with intensified fighting on Guadalcanal in the southern Solomon Islands in September 1942. In the Western hemisphere the USA threw its almighty weight into the fight against Hitler's Germany with the 'Operation Torch' landings in North Africa. The United States had launched their fight back in the Pacific when they landed there the previous month.
Montgomery had masterminded a tactical success at El Alamein in November 1942; Rommel had retreated to face an Allied invasion of Tunisia and defeat of all Axis forces on that continent. The Americans had boots on the ground.Hitherto in the war the Axis had largely been the controllers of events; now as often as not, they had to react to occurrences under a continuous rain of blows. This was followed in Russia by Hitler losing an entire army at Stalingrad when the starving survivors surrendered in January 1943.
