With the East Surreys in Tunisia, Sicily and Italy 1942-1945: Fighting for Every River and Mountain

The East Surreys were in near continuous action from November 1942, when they landed in North Africa through to May 1945 Armistice. By that time they had cleared the Germans from Tunisia, taken part in Operation HUSKY and fought up through Italy as far as River Po. This story of the East Surreys shows how a single battalion can make a huge difference.
