Welcome to Travel Guide Press. It is a new guidebook describing and providing directions to over one hundred World War II sites in Italy, including museums, monuments, cemeteries, and battlefields. The tours in each chapter focus on a particular city or region, following the Allied and German armies as they battled from southern to northern Italy.
My grandfather was with the 34th Infantry Division, 133rd Regiment during World War II in Italy from December 1943 to November 1945. In my quest for information about my grandfather’s experiences with the 34th Infantry Division, 133rd Regiment during World War II in Italy from December 1943 to November 1945, I found I had accumulated a vast amount of resources and the organization of those items was greatly needed. As I put together this website it was originally not intended to be public; but I realized in surfing the web that I had collected material that was unavailable on the web. So I made it public. www.34thinfantry.com

WW2 US Medical Research Centre The “WW2 US Medical Research Centre” started out as a private venture between two WW2 US medical collectors and re-enactors living in Europe. Using a variety of sources, primarily original WW2 documents, we were able to create an on-line database containing the list of all WW2 US Medical Department Item Numbers and their descriptions. We soon realised that this database was an invaluable research tool for anyone interested in the period. As a result, the database was further expanded, and the basic project grew to encompass a number of other resources for both collectors and re-enactors to use for their research.

Nel luglio 2004 al Beltring War & Peace Show hanno avuto l’idea di mettere su un nuovo gruppo di re-enacting dedicato al 514th Q.M. Truck Regiment e ricordare di come come questo reggimento abbia rifornito l’esercito di Patton con carburante, munizioni, vettovaglie e di quanto altro fosse necessario durante l’avanzata attraverso la Francia del nord, l’opperazione conosciuta come “The Red Ball Express”

This operation was known as “The Red Ball Express”
