The Incredible Battle of Castle Itter!

Om The Incredible Battle of Castle Itter!

In the final hours of World War II in Europe, stately Itter Castle in Austria was defended by a handful of U.S. Army and German Wehrmacht troops who joined forces in an attempt to hold off a division of battle-hardened Waffen-SS intent on assassinating all the French VIP prisoners being held there. Included were two former Prime Ministers, two retired Commanders-in-Chief of the Army, the sister of Charles de Gaulle, a renowned labor leader, the head of the right-wing political party, and a former tennis champion. The small contingent of Allies were able to hold their ground until they were down to a precious few rounds of ammunition. They were preparing to sacrifice their lives in medieval-style hand-to-hand combat.
