Mountainous Itily is the obvious objective, and her flat beaches, long coastline, broad river valleys and good rail communications are inviting to invasion. Allied bombings of Italy and the stepping stone islands seem certain cer-tain prelude to attack, but strategy here may be to deceive the enemy. Map shows the terrain of this invasion arena. Three Italian islands have already surrendered to the Allied Nations Pantelleria, Lampedusa and Linosa, which is located just above Lampedusa on the map. |
