On 8 July, the Chief of Army Staff, General M.M. Naravane, inaugurated the Indian Army Memorial at Cassino, Italy, to commemorate the Indian soldiers killed in action during the Battle of Cassino, January-May 1944.
In 1975, while hitchhiking in Italy, I spent two days studying one of the bloodiest battles of the Second World War, fought around Monte Cassino. While the Commonwealth War Cemetery and Memorial at Cassino acknowledged the contribution of Indian soldiers, it is heartening to note that now a dedicated war memorial has been constructed by India.
