Why Bradley Fired America's Most Feared Night Fighter - Terry Allen's Revenge

August 9th, 1943 - Time magazine hit newsstands with Major General Terry Allen on the cover, praising him as one of America's great division commanders in the making. Two days earlier, Omar Bradley had fired him. Allen had just captured Troina in one of the bloodiest engagements of the Sicilian campaign. His 1st Infantry Division had won every major battle in North Africa and Sicily. And Bradley sent him home in disgrace.
