"The war in Italy was tough. The land and the weather were both against us. It rained and it rained. Vehicles bogged down and bridges washed out. The country was shockingly beautiful, and just as shockingly hard to capture from the enemy."

This web site contains information on the Italian Campaign in World War 2. The primary focus of my website will be the period after the capture of Rome in June 1944, because most history books do not cover the last year of the war in Italy. This period is after the front openedin France and Italy became known as as the "forgotten front". The Overview, below, is a general history of the battles in Italy from the time of the Allies invaded Italy on September 8, 1943 until the end of the fighting on May 2, 1945. For now, this page will have a brief summary of the Italian Campaign divided into 6 parts. Later, I plan to have a time-line with maps that will illustrated the advance of Allied forces across Italy.

The 35th Infantry Division arrived in England, 25 May 1944, and received further training. It landed on Omaha Beach, Normandy, 5-7 July 1944, and entered combat 11 July, fighting in the Normandy hedgerows, north of St. Lo. The Division beat off 12 German counterattacks at Emelie before entering St. Lo, 18 July. After mopping up in the St. Lo area, it took part in the offensive action southwest of St. Lo, pushing the Germans across the Vire River, 2 August, and breaking out of the Cotentin Peninsula. While en route to an assembly area, the Division was "flagged off the road," to secure the Mortain-Avranches corridor and to rescue the 30th Division's "Lost Battalion," 7-13 August 1944. Then racing across France through Orleans and Sens, the Division attacked across the Moselle, 13 September, captured Nancy, 15 September, secured Chambrey, 1 October, and drove on to the German border, taking Sarreguemines and crossing the Saar, 8 December. After crossing the Blies River, 12 December, the... See less

A handsome monument bearing the 35th Division insignia was been erected at Flavigny, south of Nancy, France, in 1997. The monument is adjacent to the Goverment Bridge across the Moselle River. It recalls the "Night of Hell" of Sept. 10-11, 1944, when the Second Battalion of the 134th Regiment was decimated when it attempted to cross the river, preparatory to the drive on Nancy. Some 1600 soldiers were killed, wounded, captured or lost. The 60th Engineering Battalion and the 110th Medical Battalion also suffered great losses in one of the bloodiest battles of the Lorraine Campaign. More than 400 French citizens subscribed to the campaign to erect the monument. See less

Since that time this Division has traveled over 1300 miles in battle, has gone in action from St. Lo to Venlo and the Rhine River via Mortain, Orleans, Nancy, Habkirchen, Germany, Bastogne and the Lower Vosges, and has covered itself with glory in eight different Corps and four different Armies. That is a record you as an individual and we as a Division have a just right to be proud. But in accomplishing this feat, those Of you who are here, and those of our comrades who are absent, have on numerous occasions accomplished the impossible that I referred to in my talk before leaving Camp Butner. It is only by the indomitable spirit displayed by each of you and a grim determination to lick the best of the Boche under any conditions of terrain, weather, and other obstacles that we... See less
