Cleaning up on Road to Rome
Anzio, Italy – An American Army crane hoists a 300-pound Tronite demolition charge from the spot on the beach at Anzio, where it had been planted by the Germans who hoped to kill Allied invaders with it. Now, streams of men and material are pouring ashore at Anzio and at other bridgeheads south of Rome and the Allies are pushing inland to cut lines of retreat of Nazis trapped to the South.
