On November 3, 1942, The Battle at El Alamein ends.

The turning point in World War II came in the North African desert, when British General Montgomery's 8th Army defeated the Axis forces at the Battle of El Alamein. British infantry and German panzer divisions under Field Marshall Rommel battled in a 40-mile corridor between the sea and the Qattara Depression. Rommel could move only forward or backward, was outfoxed by Montgomery and soon it was only backward. Nine thousand Italian and German soldiers were captured. The laying down of arms and the surrender of German General Ritter von Thoma on November 3, 1942 signaled the opening of the Mediterranean to the Allies and set the stage for the invasion of Sicily and Italy.
