-------------------------------------------------------------
Command level analysis of the fiasco that was the attempt to cross the Rapido River beneath Monte Cassino in preparation for the Anzio landings. A good telling of the strategic situation and the interpersonal history and tensions among the commanders, but not one word of what anybody below the rank of General did. |
