7th. Army

The 7th Army was a field army of the United States Army during World War II, first activated in 1943 under the command of Lieutenant General George S. Patton. It played a crucial role in the Allied invasion of Sicily (Operation Husky) and later landed in southern France during Operation Dragoon in 1944. The 7th Army advanced across France and Germany, liberating key territories and capturing numerous enemy troops. Following the end of World War II, the 7th Army remained active in Europe as part of the U.S. occupation and later the NATO defense force during the Cold War.
