Generosity of the Italians
The Italians, they were very, very, vociferous. You didn’t have to learn many words before you completely understood what they were saying. They were generous with what wine they had, with what food that they could spare us, and it was quite heartwarming. I remember marching up in Italy in the hot summer, and some of the farmers or people along the trail would be passing these jugs of wine down the road, we’re all taking a swig of it. So, that was quite heartwarming to see the local population was for you. They’d always complain that “Tedeschi portate via.” The Germans took it away – which probably they did, but in war…it’s there for the taking.
