It was October, 1944, and the German forces in Italy were in desperate straits. A beleaguered German grenadier battaliion was committed to defending at all costs the seemingly impregnable Monte Colle. It was as fine a battalion as any in the war, and the brilliant Lieutenant-Colonel von List, holder of the Knight's Cross with Oakleaf, Swords, and Diamonds, was transferred from the Russian front to command it in its most crucial hour. Arrayed against them was a resolute British brigade of Guards biding its time as the Allies built up gigantic stocks of ammuntion. The Luftwaffe had vanished, and the Wehrmacht's resources were strained as the men of the battalion turned to their courageious guardian for leadership.
