No, soldiers in the pictures are from the First Special Service Force. Rocky your vitality and your desire to play are great, there is a place where I can buy them?

You can not remember the cartel and the Christmas tree of the photo during the Christmas of 1944?

Enrico-Christmas to us was just another day. I didn't see a Christmas tree till I got back home,1945. No fire to warm us up. Yes I think there was some snow. Seems now like that was one hundred years ago. But I thank GOD that I can still write here. Rocky

I can imagine Rocky, and I also thank God for giving me the chance to meet you! You're a good man Rocky, and I am sure that everyone knows it!

I scanned these maps this morning and added them to the main site. You can access the link here:

Engineer History Mediterranean Theater - Fifth Army Maps

It's a large file, so it may take a while to download and appear.

M1 Thanks again, sorry if I answer only now, but I was not very well yesterday! (strong cold).

The maps are fantastic!

By chance have you any map with the locations of the regiments, platoon, team?

Sorry you are ill. No fun! Get better soon. Lots of chicken soup, plenty of liquids and tons of sleep. That'a about all you can do for a cold.

:zzzz:

The maps I sent are as good as it gets. Those are official 5th Army maps from the original book and there is nothing below Company detail. Sorry....

Thanks for the advice anyway today I'm better already, yesterday I was a sort of zombie haha

No problem, thanks, I asked because you have a lot of interesting material!

The Army Engineer Office of History was also glad to receive copies. As Michael stated, many think they have a lot of maps, but in actuality, they do not.
