Sicily 1943
#5
Most of these are self explanatory but I will add a description:

 

1. The landing of the US 3rd Infantry Division.

2 & 3. An Italian memorial. (someone translate?)

4. Memorial to those killed in the battle of Ponte Drillo.

5. Ponte Drillo today.

6. Memorial to the crew of a C47 involved in the landing.

7. The C47 memorial erected by the owner of the hotel in whose grounds

the crash occurred,
