Title: North Africa Operation, November 1942.
Caption: U.S. troops landing on a North African beach, circa 8 November 1942. Photographed by Lieutenant Horace Bristol, USNR. Place is probably Safi, as USS SANTEE (CVE-29) covered the landings there, and Bristol was attached to that ship for this operation. Landing craft appear to be LCP(R) types.
