a direct bomb hit on Company F Billet, 21 enlisted men killed
Oh, my.
I was about to resort to pulling out my copy of "Fatal Decision" and looking for something in it. Anzio was a strange and dangerous place. One moment you could be resting in a fox hole and the next moment shells would be falling around you. The beach head was large enough to have hospitals, movies(usually underground and an occasional baseball game. But you were assured of enemy bombers and snipers looming over you waiting to take a shot at you.
