Default Cassino - The Destruction of an Italian Town
Three photos scanned at the NARA on Saturday.

Caption from SC Photo 188926:

"In one of the war's most concentrated air bombings,
the town of Cassino, Italy, was completely destroyed.
German held Cassino has long blocked the Allied advance
toward Rome."

Date: 15 March 1944
