Thank you for joining us, Millsbomb, and for your service for Crown and Country in World War II.

Dear Paul,
I am researching my dadīs experiences in the Italian Campaign. He was with 1st British Infantry Division at Anzio, Florence and the Gothic Line (including the Monte Grande sector). Do you know of any photos of the Gothic line positions in the Monte Grande sector?
