Monte Cassino: The Soldiers' Story

Original title: Monte Cassino: The Soldiers' Story

Synopsis

The months-long battle of Monte Cassino, one of the bloodiest of the second World War, is related by the Germans and Allied troops who fought it. Men of the 1st/4th Essex Battalion and the German paratroop regiment are to the fore here, as they were 60 years ago.
