I'm preparing for my 2006 trip to Sicily in May. I am hoping to trace the journey from Agrigento on the south coast to Palermo, undertaken by the US 7th Army via San Stefano, Prizzi and Corleone etc from July 19th 1943 over very hard terrain. Having visited the beacheads at Licata and Gela previously, I now wish to close my research with the one area I have not travelled. As Marion and I have said before WW2 in Sicily is all but forgotten - I am determined this will not happen.
Is there a Husky veteran or family member that has anything to add to my research especially to do with the 7th US Army?
Colin.
