Описание: In February 1943, the United States Army suffered its most humiliating defeat of World War Two at Kasserine Pass in Tunisia. British commanders openly mocked American soldiers, calling them "our Italians" and dismissing their generals as incompetent amateurs. The Afrika Korps under Field Marshal Erwin Rommel crushed American forces, capturing thousands of men and destroying nearly two hundred tanks in just ten days. But what happened next became one of the greatest military transformations in history. Under the leadership of General George Patton, the same soldiers who fled through Kasserine Pass would redeem themselves at El Guettar, storm the cliffs of Hill 609, sweep across Sicily, and land on the beaches of Normandy. This is the true story of how an unprepared army that ranked nineteenth in the world in 1939 became the most powerful fighting force on Earth by 1945. From the disaster at Sidi Bou Zid to the liberation of Paris, witness the journey of ordinary Americans who made terrible mistakes, learned from their failures, and kept fighting until they won the war. A full-length World War Two documentary exploring Operation Torch, the Tunisia Campaign, and the remarkable redemption of the American soldier.
