The Allied decision to invade Sicily was made in mid-January 1943, during Casablanca Conference when the Joint Chiefs of Staff agreed to continue the commitment in the Mediterranean, hoping that by maintaining the momentum, they would relieve the German pressure on Russians at the Eastern Front. And although it may appear that the Allied decision to invade Sicily was easy, straightforward, and self-explanatory, it was not the case.
