A group of young fascists from Littoria who had asked the Germanic command to defend their land with weapons, on their return from a daring exploration, and assaulted by an overwhelming patrol of daring Americans. After an hour of fighting, the young Blackshirts launch themselves into the assault with daggers and hand grenades, fleeing the enemy department, which has left several dead and wounded on the ground. Three young fascists - Aldo Marcori, Giovanni Cerchiari and Vittorio Circinella - have also fallen, and a fourth - Aristide Del Pozzo - seriously injured in the belly, refuses to abandon his submachine gun and keep firing until your strength is exhausted.
