Trivia
Test your knowledge of Italy.
On a rainy and dreary night at Lunga Ridge not far from Henderson Field in the Guadalcanal a 26 year old gunnery Sergeant became a legend and a hero. For six months the Japanese and the Americans were fighting to gain control of Henderson Field. On October 25, 1942 that struggle came to an end when John Basilone, an Italian American from Raritan, New Jersey, withstood wave after wave of attacks by the Japanese to win the battle.
Corado "Babe" Ciarlo Italiansrus.com
The apple of his mother's eye, Corado "Babe" Ciarlo, was only 20 years old when he was killed in battle. In his pockets, they found 2 rosaries, $1.61, sixteen photographs of family members and one letter. While the other items held a special significance for Babe, the letter - undoubtedly from his family - serves to exemplify his courage and nobility.
Anthony Damato
He was awarded the Medal of Honor posthumously, served with an assault company of the 2d Battalion, 22d Marines, 5th Amphibious Corps, on Engebi Island, Eniwetok Atoll and Marshall Islands.

Dominic Salvatore Gentile Italiansrus.com
Variously called "a one-man Air Force," "Captain Courageous," and "the Ace of Aces," Captain Dominic Gentile had few peers when it came to air combat. Along with his close friend and dedicated wingman, John T. Godfrey, their lethal partnership so plagued Hermann Göring's Luftwaffe during World War II that they earned the epithet, "Debden Gangsters."
