    Steven Frank, command historian for U.S. Africa Command, stands in the tall grass on a ridge overlooking Hill 609, a key point of contention during Operation Torch and the Second World War, where Allied Forces, many of whom were assigned to the 1st Inf. Div., assaulted heavily fortified German defense, as it sits today in Djebel Tahent, in Northwestern Tunisia, May 12, 2023. NCOs of the 1st Inf. Div. took part in an international symposium commemorating the 80th Anniversary of the Tunisian Campaign of WWII as part of an ongoing leadership professional development opportunity that allowed them to see firsthand the significance Operation Torch had on the outcome of the Second World War.
