Operation Pedestal was a World War II convoy operation in the Mediterranean that successfully resupplied the island of Malta in late 1942. The convoy fought through constant Axis air raids and submarine attacks, which resulted in high British losses. The operation was overshadowed by the Allied invasion of North Africa during Operation Torch, which was launched soon after. Malta's role throughout the war in the Mediterranean made it vital for the British to hold, and the Pedestal convoy's successful effort to keep the island from capitulation should make the operation a turning point. The few military historians who studied the Mediterranean in detail argue about the importance of the Pedestal convoy and whether the resulting British losses justified the sacrifice made to keep Malta in British hands. This little-known battle should be considered significant in its role within the Mediterranean campaign due to Malta's strategic location and its role in future offensives.
