However, the 5th Bomb Wing was reassigned to the <a href="/wiki/Twelfth_Air_Force" title="Twelfth Air Force">Twelfth Air Force</a> in October 1942, to support the Western Task Force being assembled for the <a href="/wiki/Operation_Torch" title="Operation Torch">Operation Torch</a> landings, planned for November. </p><p>The 5th moved to North Africa in November, and its subordinate units began flying missions from <a href="/wiki/French_Morocco" class="mw-redirect" title="French Morocco">French Morocco</a> in late 1942. The 97th and 301st Bomb groups, both being transferred from <a href="/wiki/Eighth_Air_Force" title="Eighth Air Force">Eighth Air Force</a>, were the pioneer heavy bomb groups in North Africa. </p><p>Three weeks prior to the invasion saw a number of secret missions flown by the 97th BG. The first of these occurred on 18 October 1942 when <a href="/wiki/Mark_W._Clark" title="Mark W. Clark">General Mark Clark</a>, commander of ground forces in the Western Task Force, flew to <a href="/wiki/Gibraltar" title="Gibraltar">Gibraltar</a>, along with a box containing $100,000 in gold 20 <a href="/wiki/Franc" title="Franc">Franc</a> coins, which were going to be paid to corrupt <a href="/wiki/Vichy_France" title="Vichy France">Vichy France</a> officials in North Africa in order to secure their cooperation during the coming invasion. However, after Clark landed in Gibraltar, the coins were lost overboard when they were on the final leg of their journey. </p><p>Also, on 5 November <a href="/wiki/Dwight_D._Eisenhower" title="Dwight D. Eisenhower">General Dwight Eisenhower</a> and British General Kenneth Anderson was flown on a 97th BG B-17 were flown from Britainto Gibraltar. The following day, General James Doolittle, the newly named commander of <a href="/wiki/Twelfth_Air_Force" title="Twelfth Air Force">Twelfth Air Force</a> was flown to Gibraltar. Doolittle's B-17 was intercepted by four Ju-88s over the <a href="/wiki/Bay_of_Biscay" title="Bay of Biscay">Bay of Biscay</a>, forcing the pilot to dive sharply and make a run for it just above the ocean's surface. The co-pilot of the aircraft was injured by a strafing run of one of the German aircraft, and Doolittle reached for the first aid kit and attended to the wounded man. Afterward, Doolittle sat in the co-pilot's seat and helped fly the aircraft to Gibraltar. </p><p>Shortly after the invasion, the 97th and 301st moved from their bases in England to an airfield at <a href="/wiki/Tafraoui" title="Tafraoui">Tafraoui</a>, Algeria. The conditions in Algeria were sparse compared to that in England, but by 24 November the two groups attacked the docks at <a href="/wiki/Bizerte" title="Bizerte">Bizerte</a>, Tunisia. </p><p>As the American forces moved eastward, the 5th's units flew from Algeria beginning in January 1943, attacking coastal targets in Tunisia, and also concentrations of <a href="/wiki/Erwin_Rommel" title="Erwin Rommel">Rommel's</a> <a href="/wiki/Afrika_Corps" class="mw-redirect" title="Afrika Corps">Afrika Corps</a>. The 5th BW moved to Tunisia in August. Targets included airdromes, marshalling yards, bridges, and troop concentrations. In February 1943, the 5th, in direct support of ground operations, bombed enemy troop concentrations in the <a href="/wiki/Kasserine_Pass" class="mw-redirect" title="Kasserine Pass">Kasserine Pass</a>. From its airfields in Tunisia, its subordinate units bombed <a href="/wiki/Pantelleria" title="Pantelleria">Pantelleria</a>, Sicily, and marshaling yards and airdromes on the Italian mainland. By October, the 5th Bomb Wing consisted of the two B-17 groups as well as two P-38 equipped fighter groups (1st, 325th FG). </p><p>On 1 November 1943, <a href="/wiki/Fifteenth_Air_Force" title="Fifteenth Air Force">Fifteenth Air Force</a> was established as a second American strategic air force in the <a href="/wiki/European_Theater" class="mw-redirect" title="European Theater">European Theater</a>. It was hoped that the 15th AF stationed in the <a href="/wiki/Mediterranean" class="mw-redirect" title="Mediterranean">Mediterranean</a> would be able to operate when the Eighth Air Force in England was socked in by bad English weather. Twelfth Air Force would continue to operate, however it would be realigned as a tactical air force. The 97th and 301st were joined with three additional B-17 groups (2d, 98th 99th BG) with its reassignment to Fifteenth Air Force. </p><p>Missions were flown from Tunisia in November against a Messerschmidt assembly plant in Austria, and against some Italian targets, however the wing and its groups were in the process of moving to new airfields captured around <a href="/wiki/Foggia" title="Foggia">Foggia</a> in Italy in late September. Advanced echelons moved initially, working with engineering units to prepare the airfields and extend runways to accommodate the B-17. The 2d Bomb Group moved to Amendola airfield, while the 97th moved to the Foggia airfield, as its base at San Giovanni was still not ready. The 301st flew into Cerignola and the 99th into Tortorella. </p><p>Once settled into their new bases around <a href="/wiki/Foggia" title="Foggia">Foggia</a> the 5th began a series of raids, attacking enemy targets in Germany, Austria, Hungary, <a href="/wiki/Yugoslavia" title="Yugoslavia">Yugoslavia</a>, Greece, and Bulgaria. In June 1944, its groups began "shuttle bombing" and landing on airfields behind the <a href="/wiki/Eastern_Front_(World_War_II)" title="Eastern Front (World War II)">Russian front</a>. On these missions, American aircraft took off from airdromes in Italy, made a bombing attack, and landed on airdromes in the Soviet Union. Then they reversed the process. In August 1944, the 5th Wing supported <a href="/wiki/Operation_Dragoon" title="Operation Dragoon">Operation Dragoon</a>, the invasion of Southern France. </p><p>The 5th Bomb Wing continued strategic bombing missions until the Germans surrendered in May 1945.
