Did any of you older vets serve with the Devil’s Brigade during WWII? My father belonged and spoke a lot about a battle called Operation Shingle. He was amongst a group of Canadians who fought along side an American & British contingent in the Battle of Anzio.

He was later shipped to England where he took part in the Battle of Europe.

Just wondering.
