Massacre of the 33d Acqui Division: One of the First Acts of Italian Resistance in WWII

Why We Fight ~ 1944 - A podcast by Sasha Maggio (MoT)

In this episode, Damián Valle joins me to talk about the massacre of the Italian 33d Acqui Division after the Armistice of Cassibile. This is the story that provides the foundation of the novel and movie Captain Corelli's Mandolin. It is sometimes referred to as the first act of Italian resistance, but as Damián notes, there were others all around the same time.
