Italy map wanted.

Has anyone got a WW2 map of Italy Sheet 158 IV NW 1:25 000?
It's the western part of Anzio Beachead near Ardea.
I have some grid references to where Sgt Rogers of 2 Wilts won his VC.
The NE Spur, map ref 776369.
Would like to find the exact location.
Have sketch maps but I want to be more precise.

Spent all day look for one in the 1st Division HQ files at the National Archives... sadly no luck. Going to have to go down to Brigade and Battalion level now.

Paul,
When you going to TNA again?
Could you have a look at 5th Div & 2 Wilts Diaries for a map?
The 2 Wilts one I have from The Wardrobe is just a transcription, no Appendix or maps.

I won't be there until after Easter, but will add those to the list. I might look at 5 Div HQ diaries as well, to see what is there.

Owen. I'll see if I manage to get a look when I'm next there (either next Thursday or the week after).

Dave.
