There is a citation available to veterans and next of kin, presented by the citizens of Anzio to all those who freed them from dictatorship and fought at Anzio and gave their lives doing so.
The gentleman to contact in this country is:Mr Gordon Taylor, 3 Appleshawn Crescent, Wrenthorpe, Wakefield, Yorkshire WF2 0QJ.
It is officially called the Veteran's Certificate of Honour and is a gift from the people of Anzio in Italy.
If anyone is travelling down that way, the town of Anzio has a museum dedicated to that landing.
