Summary
Allies begin clearing up operations on the Port of Civita Vecchia after the Nazis destroyed everything they could to make the harbour useless. Track-laying is done by a bulldozer and the new line carries its first load, a captured German coastal gun. P47 Thunderbolts are seen on a mission behind German lines leaving a trail of disrupted transport and blazing dumps.
