"River Crossing at Arnaville" is the story of a battle that started badly and ended in victory; "Objective: Schmidt," of a battle that began with an unexpectedly easy success and turned into tragic defeat. "Break-Through at Monte Altuzzo" is the account of how, after a succession of misguided efforts, a comparatively small number of men penetrated the formidable Gothic Line in Italy.
