In July 1943, the men of the First Canadian Division land on the beaches of Sicily, as the Allies invade Fascist Italy. The Canadians quickly prove their mettle against crack German troops, becoming skilled, battle-hardened fighters. One of the men is Stan Scislowski, who plunges us into the humorous and dangerous world of the foot soldier.
