Description: THE TAKEOVER OF MONTE CASTELLO

On February 21, 1945 the Brazilian Expeditionary Force achieved one of its most remarkable feats during the Campaign of Italy—the conquest of Monte Castello, until then considered an inexpugnable fortress.

That conquest became legendary not only for its expressive tactical meaning but also for the extremely adverse conditions that involved the attack operation.
