http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-19109836 Could be good if done right. It was, by any sane measure, a bloodbath: 55000 allied dead, 20000 German, might be an idea to at least try to tell the story from both sides.. ![]()

The article doesn't appear to mention that the abbey in question had precisely no german troops in it, the german co refusing to place his troops in the abbey) but several thousand local refugees.
We bombed it shitless anyway having ignored intelligence to the above. ggwp.

Was reading an article about this film coming out. It suggested 1/3 of losses on Allied side was from friendly fire. Appalling if that's the case..

The whole Italian campaign veered toward the messy side tbh, my maternal Grandfather, and my eldest Uncle fought there, not something they liked talking about, apart from coming away with some pretty scathing comments regarding the Italian miltary.
