Bugle Call to FreedomIt was midday on September 9 1943, the day following the announcement of Italy's surrender to the Allies. At PG 49, a prison camp at Fontanellato, in the Po valley, a bugle sounded three short blasts, the signal for the biggest mass escape by Allied PoWs in Italy during the Second World War. In camps elsewhere in the country there was confusion. Many prisoners of war, obeying orders from London, stayed put, only to be swept up by the occupying German

It was midday on September 9 1943, the day following the announcement of Italy's surrender to the Allies. At PG 49, a prison camp at Fontanellato, in the Po valley, a bugle sounded three short blasts, the signal for the biggest mass escape by Allied PoWs in Italy during the Second World War.

In camps elsewhere in the country there was confusion. Many prisoners of war, obeying orders from London, stayed put, only to be swept up by the occupying German army and sent to Germany, long before Allied forces could reach them.

At PG 49, however, the Senior British Officer and the sympathetic Italian commandant came to an agreement. The wire was cut and 600 PoWs marched out of the camp into the countryside, in the nick of time before the Germans arrived.

The prisoners were free but facing an uncertain future. Should they go north to neutral Switzerland or walk hundreds of miles south to Allied lines? Either way, they would rely on the bravery of peasants in the plains and mountains to hide them from the Germans and Italian Fascists.


Drawing on both PoW memoirs and civilian eyewitness accounts, Italian historian Marco Minardi tells the compelling story of the escape and its aftermath. In this translation, published by the Monte San Martino Trust, the huge and, in some cases, tragic repercussions for the local community it become abundantly clear.


The Monte San Martino Trust is a charity founded by former Allied PoWs in Italy to repay the kindness of the contadini. It arranges scholarships for young Italians to study English in the U.K.

Excellent choice!
I really like this Neutrogena Clear Body sunscreen. I have very fair skin that burns easily. Good sunscreen is a must, and I have tried dozens of them. To date, this is my favorite one. For an SPF50, it goes on very light, dries quickly, and has only a mild scent. It has been doing a good job protecting my delicate skin from the burning sun rays.

Great everyday sunscreen light, non-greasy, and easy to use
I recently tried the Neutrogena Clear Body SPF 50 Sunscreen Spray and it’s become my go-to for outdoor work and weekend hikes. The spray format is convenient and quick to apply, even over arms and legs, and it dries down fast without leaving a sticky or greasy film. The SPF 50 protection feels solid — I spent a full afternoon outside and didn’t get sunburned. My only small gripe: you need to spray generously and evenly (and sometimes reapply) to make sure you get full coverage — a light mist doesn’t cut it. Otherwise, it’s a reliable, easy-to-use sunscreen for daily or outdoor use.

No odor or residue on skin, excellent sun protection
No odor or stickiness, disappears perfectly after application and provides excellent sun protection. I apply it outside as the smell of the propellant is strong

Highly recommended sunscreen
Goes on clear, is a little bit greasy at first but soaks into the skin fast. Excellent protection from the sun. Not loaded up with all kinds of moisturizers or smelly lotions. I appreciate that.
