text: ENTERING “CITY OF THE DEAD, 3/20/1944. This photo, flashed to the U.S. by radio today, shows a long line of Red Cross and patrol vehicles, pausing behind the shelter of piles of rubble, just before entering Cassino, Italy, following the Allied “obliteration raid”—heaviest of the war—on the town. German paratroops, landed after the raid, put up stubborn resistance, but today, all but a section of the southern part of Cassino was in Allied hands. Note ruined buildings (background in photo) marking the terrific destruction wreaked by Allied bombs.Credit: U.S. Signal Corps radiophoto from Acme;
