"lest we forget -god bless them all " a Cassino Travel Page by domenicococozza

Cassino, roughly half way between Rome and Naples, is now a modern college town. The whole town seems to be inhabited by students. Of course, it was not always like this. Above the town, sits the site of the monastery of Monte Cassino where many good men lost their lives, during the last World War. Leaving the town environs and climbing the steep road to the monastery, there are the pristine cemeteries for these brave men.
This is a place for reflection, but the monastery itself still attracts many tourists and it is well worth a visit.
