American soldiers of the U.S. 92nd Infantry Division fire a bazooka at a German machine gun nest near Altopascio, Lucca, September 1944. (1280 x 1016 px)
The invasion of Italy seems to get 1/10th the attention as the invasion of France. It didnt end the war, but was it 1/10th as difficult, 1/10th as important? It seems odd.

I like the pics posted here but man “porn” is such a stupid name for a sub when it deals with material like this.

I wonder how many of those guys made it off that ridge/through the war/back home. There’s some stories there.

That house looks like it could be new construction in an upscale neighborhood near me (southwest Florida).

"Bazooka" has gotta be pretty much the best weapon name of all time

I Live in Lucca; wondering if it could be possible to identify the spot…
Guess it would be difficult.
