81 years ago today, the Anzio landing, part of Operation Shingle during WWII, began on Jan. 22, 1944, as Allied forces aimed to outflank German defenses and capture Rome. Allied troops initially achieved surprise but failed to push inland decisively, allowing German forces under Field Marshal Kesselring to reinforce. A brutal stalemate followed with heavy casualties. In May 1944, the Allies broke through, linking with southern forces and liberating Rome on June 4. Learn about the Italian Campaign in the WWII in Europe Gallery in the American Heritage Museum.

The Mission of the American Heritage Museum
The American Heritage Museum seeks to engage, educate, entertain and enlighten its audiences in the history of our military and veterans through a chronologically arranged series of exhibits and educational interpretation. We do this through a focus on three themes:
The history of the American fight for independence and the preservation of democracy through history.
The role of the American citizen soldier in the battles fought.
And the role of technology and innovation in the defense of these servicemen and servicewomen.
The American Heritage Museum is additionally committed to the development of living history events within Massachusetts to provide inspiration to our future generations.
