link you proved i cant access :(

As for the pic, you sure thats Ruin Ridge? That is the name of the ridge though, so thank you for that :)


talking of ridges, theres one which the aussies attacked, slapped 2 Italian divisions up in the process ... i found that one .... a small sandy piece of nothing.
Guess it makes sence back then, where the troops where positioned. As the histories say. ... it was a good view point. But just looking on a map ... its nothiness. :eek:
