In 1942 the Allies launched Operation TORCH, the complex invasion of Morocco and Algeria which relied on a mass flotilla of merchant ships carrying 70,000 troops across the Atlantic. As naval protection was focused on these convoys, other trading routes were left unprotected. Bernard Edwards explores the theory that the 31 ships and 792 men who were lost on three of those newly vulnerable routes were effectively sacrificed to distract the U-Boats.
