Recommended Posts

During a return trip to Italy, several veterans, descendants and friends retraced the 10th's combat route in Northern Italy. The top half of this picture was taken last week during that trip. The gentleman is the same U.S. soldier carrying the BAR, closest to the body of the German soldier. Same spot plus 67 years .... (sorry that I don't have the details requested for this section).

I have a photo of myself on that same spot in 1994. It is awkard to see new buildings and developments in this area. Not long ago, major parts of it were just the same as in the 40s.
