June 1944

Italy

In the US 5th Army's IV Corps area, the 34th Division continues the battle for Cecina. A battalion of the 135th Infantry establishes a bridgehead across the Cecina River and, with assistance from some tanks, defends it successfully. The 133rd Infantry makes the main effort against the town of Cecina, which is still strongly defended. To protect the right flank, the 168th Infantry is moved forward to the Cecina River by truck and the 3rd Battalion begins crossing without any opposition.

In the British 8th Army's XIII Corps area, the 4th Divisiion overruns Petrignano in lively fighting.
