In Italy, the Festa della Liberazione (Liberation Day) is celebrated on April 25, so many people (even Italians) don’t realize that this week marks the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Rome from Nazi German occupation.
Thanks for writing this one. As a son of the captain of the 337th Regiment of the 85th Division, I would like to know what military unit your grandfather served with.

He served with the 141st Regiment of the 36th Division.
Thanks. It was a tough division.
Wow, how fascinating that your grandfather was among those soldiers liberating Rome. Did you get to talk to him about it?
I heard some of his stories, but I think it was hard for him to talk about the war.
Yes. Understandable.
