WHERE did US troops first fight near Europe? Northern Africa.

Against GERMANS, right..? No, against Vichy FRENCH troops.

When the front was collapsing, Churchill begged the French government to move to North Africa with their fleet and as much of the army as they could take to continue the fight. Instead, the government surrendered to Germany and installed the collaborationist and fascist Vichy regime. So much for “confronting fascism,” eh France?
