Italian Campaign Frame 2


Background
***********
The Allied invasion of Sicily and the whole Italian
Campaign was marked by heavy use of airpower for
interdiction missions and attacking enemy transportation
network. The allied heavy bombers flew a huge number of missions
against railroad marshalling yards throughout the whole
Italy. Some missions were flown without any opposition from
the Axis air force, but some met heavy resistance.
