The Western Task Force Assault on
Morocco, November 8, 1942.
Infantrymen from the 3rd Infantry Division came ashore armed
with M1 Garand rifles, Browning Automatic Rifles, and M1 Carbine
rifles. M3 light tanks from the 2nd Armored Division rallied
and prepared for battles to come. A battalion command group assessed
the situation in a Willys Jeep, while a Military Policeman
prepared to move out on a Harley-Davidson WLA. This print commemorates
the men who responded with courage and tenacity as they took
the fight to the Axis forces in North Africa in response to the
uniquely American command - "Play Ball." Signed
