For King and Country TV Series Ep.4: Italy The Forgotton Army Part Two
Two Episodes on the Canadians in Sicily and Italy. The second hour deals with the breaking of the Hitler Line in the Liri Valley and ends with a veteran of the Perths taking us over the ground where they fought at a seam in the Gothic Line, and provided an opportunity for the tanks to exploit this German weak point, a great Canadian victory.
