From dust jacket: This is the story of an outstanding regiment from what was to become a great division -- the Ninth -- in its very first operation. The story is told by the colonel who trained and commanded it. (He printed it, too, page by page, setting type by hand in the old fashioned way. The binding and dust jacket are by professionals). The 47th Infantry Regiment and its Combat Team attachments landed before daylight at Safi, French Morocco, on November 8, 1942. Their mission was to capture the docks, the town, and a ten thousand yard beachhead so General Ernest Harmon might land his 2nd Armored Division and go to Patton's aid at Casablanca. This book is not a history, in the strict sense. It is the simple story of what the colonel saw, and did, and said while the combat team fought the French Army to get ashore and establish its beachhead.
