An interesting article on the results of the battle at Cisterna, Italy, January 1944, and how it transformed how the Rangers would be used by the Army.

Robert Mitchum and Peter Falk (AKA Columbo) escaped being captured of course, with that clever trick to cross a minefield. Assuming you have all seen "Anzio".

I've never forgotten that scene from Anzio! I had forgotten who played them.

Cheers,
