Wwii Training At And Around Innelan For The Invasion Of North Africa In 1942
A Memory of Innellan.
My wife's uncle arrived in Roseneath, Scotland in September of 1942 to train for the invasion of North Africa (Operation Torch), which took place on November 8 of that year. He was with the US Army's First Infantry Division. His detailed diary tells of practicing beach landings at Roseneath and Dunoon, and street fighting at Innelan. He was very complimentary of the way the people treated him and his fellow soldiers.
