I knew an old guy who said during WW2 he joined the army and went to Africa. What was he doing there? (I didn’t know him very well and he’s probably dead now so I can’t ask him directly). Was there any war related stuff going on in Africa?

I knew there was fighting in north africa. (American here) But not sure how I knew. I don't recall hearing much about it in school. But fighting china? I gotta say, I never heard much about china other than how badly the Japanese soldiers treated the chinese.
