�•

More or less an easy victory because the troops came across were German

• Occupied a house for the night
• Strom was exhausted; no sleep the past 3 or 4 days because a Commander you get
little sleep
• Strom fell asleep; 2 hours later the phone line rings and gets orders to go to the
town where Company A was, 10-15 miles away; took Strom’s Company 45
minutes to wake him up
o They slapped him, made him stand up, poured water on him, etc. and he
still didn’t wake up!
• When finally got on telephone it was 2 am. Strom was told that trucks were on the
way to pick him and his Company up; was told that Company A was under attack
o Most harrowing drive Strom has ever been; he and one other person were
in a jeep being followed by the big 2 ½ trucks carrying his troops

(40:12) War in Iraq

(41:33) Serving

not to
(43:18) Rapido crossing in Cassino (continued)
• The reason why the 141st and 143rd Division were nearly wiped out was because
of faulty planning
• Division Commander Gen. Fred Walker did not want to make crossing
o A few days before the crossing, Strom went up on the mountains and
looked down at the river where they were to cross.
o Saw that it would be rough, knew that Germans had had 1 month to
prepare for attack and that this was not going to be a good situation
(44:33) Leaky boats at Rapido crossing
• Pitch dark outside
• More shelling
• Wooden boats fully loaded down with ammunition and such
• Instantly sank; river current was 10 mph and was quite deep
• 12 or so men in the Company drowned
• Engineers built a footbridge across out of ropes with planks across them
(46:10) Description of the experience
• Dramatic and deadly yet didn’t actually seem quite that bad
• Proud of what did, if asked to do it again, he and most other veterans would serve
again
(47:58) Bombing at the Abbey at Monte Cassino
• Abbey built in 450 AD by St. Benedict
o Started the Catholic order of the Benedictine monks
• Beautiful Abbey
o Modeled after St. Peter’s Cathedral
o Visited there several times since the war
• Strom met Abbot, who was 1 of 7 monks in Abbey when bombed
• Idea was that the monks could watch the US troops from its windows
• Bombing of the Abbey killed 200 civilians
• The ruins, however, made a better hiding place for German troops and their
machine guns
• At Cassino, troops from 14 nations were fighting against the Germans: American,

                <text>Carl J. Strom served in the United States Army in France and Italy during WW II from July 1942 to May 1945. In this interview, Strom and his wife, Eleanor, talk about their wartime experiences. Eleanor discusses life as an Army wife and how she followed her husband from boot camp to boot camp. Strom was a member Company B, 141st Regiment, 36th Infantry Division and lead the first platoon of soldiers across the Rapido River at the Battle at Cassino. He and one other soldier were the only people to survive from their Platoon's crossing. Strom's account of the Battle at Cassino is told in great detail. Strom shares stories of leaky boats, the bombing of the Abby, and intense casualties. He also discusses his Division's invasion of Southern France and an unlikely friendship between himself and a German Captain. Strom integrated maps, photographs, and his medals into the video interview.</text>
