Spotlight On…the Rapido River Crossing of January 1944 in the Anzio/Monte Cassino Campaign (Italy) of World War II. Meet our special guest Albert DeFazio from Verona, a veteran of the 36th Infantry Division who was part of the assault crossing. Learn why this battle was the focus of a Congressional investigation after the war. Mr. DeFazio’s 143rd Regiment assault will be on display as a 1/72 scale (1″ tall) miniature game; guests can watch or even participate in this historic battle.
