Best Answer

In the Pacific Theater, they were fighting from one island to another as well as naval battles with the Japanese navy. In Europe. the Americans landed on North Africa on 8 Nov 1942 and assisted the British in defeating the Germans in Africa. Then they landed in Sicily and Italy and had fought there for a year before D-Day on 6 June 1944.
