During World War II, several British army units served in North Africa, Italy, and Sicily, including the 8th Army, which played a crucial role in the North African Campaign. Key divisions within the 8th Army included the 4th and 7th Armoured Divisions, known for their significant contributions in battles like El Alamein. Additionally, the British 1st Infantry Division and various commando units participated in the Italian campaign, while the British 50th Infantry Division was active in Sicily. These units collectively helped to secure vital victories in the Mediterranean theater.
