George Collings Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Italy in Winter, Not tried myself, I took the advice of an ex 8th Army tanky uncle who spent 1944 and 45 there on a motoring tour when the winters were bitterly cold. The campsites particularly around Monte Casino and Salerno at that time were pretty rough. In summer the view from Monte Casino is fantastic made me glad I was born in the middle of WW2 and did not have to fight there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, that generation may have profited from real jobs for life, trade unions, tax relief on mortgages and rising house prices. But going through the war must have been a heavy price to pay for it.
