I have travelled extensively in Sicily, including circumnavigating the island by rail except for the stretch from Trapani where no rail exists. This was during my years of research into Operation Husky and the progress of the US 7th Army, The British and Commonwealth 8th army and the Canadian 1st Division. So your post is of interest to me, thank you.

Superb! Nice job and a lot of people will really appreciate the information and images.
Hey, I have a photo from my dad's unit, I think you will enjoy! This was taken in North Africa.
