Historical note

The defeat of Allied forces in the Kasserine Pass encouraged German command in North Africa to launch a further counteroffensive. On March 23rd 1943, Axis tank units launched an attack on American positions near El Guettar, but minefields and artillery held back their onslaught, inflicting notable losses. An Allied offensive conducted at the same time also proved fruitless, and the front line did not move at the end of March.
