Embassy Honors American Veterans of the Anzio Campaign, May 28, 2009
On May 28, 2009, the U.S. Embassy to the Holy See hosted a reception in honor of American veterans of the Anzio campaign in Italy during World War II. The veterans, each of whom had fought at the Anzio beachhead, were in Italy for Memorial Day ceremonies at the Sicily-Rome American Cemetery in Nettuno, Italy, where many of the American soldiers who died at Anzio are buried.
