Sedjenane is a town in northern Tunisia, on the railway line to Mateur and the port of Bizerta. The town became of strategic importance during the Allied Invasion of North Africa in World War II. Following the initial landings of Operation Torch, the Allied rush for Tunis was halted by German paratroops (operating in the ground role) in the hills east of the town in November 1942. Troops of the 8th Battalion the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders were ambushed as they advanced on the road through the hills on November 29 1942 and their wrecked Universal Carriers in No man’s land became a grim symbol of the ensuing stalemate to Allied troops over the following several months of the Tunisian Campaign.
“Sejenane was a wayside railway town in the wet cork forests on the way to Mateur. Whoever held Mateur held Bizerta, and whoever held Green and Bald Hills outside Sedjenane held Mateur.”
