Overview:
On D-Day of Operation Torch, the 2nd Battalion Landing Team (BLT) had in part the critical mission of capturing the coastal defenses of Mehdia before daylight. The Vichy French resisted the landings. In the fight the GIs were unable to halt their own naval gunfire support and could not close with the defenders. Later in the morning, a misunderstanding caused the green and shaken unit to advance about a thousand yards eastward into a village. Shortly thereafter it came under counterattack by westward moving French reinforcements. . .Attacker: Vichy French (Reinforced elements of 2ème Bataillon, 1er Régiment de Tirailleurs Marocains)
Defender: American (2nd Battalion Landing Team, 60th Infantry Regiment, 9th Infantry Division)
