62 1st The Queen’s Dragoon Guards
Having concluded the day’s stands we headed back to the hotel to brush up for dinner in a restaurant run by Italy’s only Cockney waitress.
The nal day of the tour began in much the same fashion as the last three. An early rise followed by a road move to the rst of the days stands and then on to the nal Cemetery on the tour itinerary,
the Cassino CWGC Cemetery. Here we once again paid tribute to the fallen members of the Kings Dragoon Guards who had served during this period of the war by once again laying crosses at their graves. This provided a tting nal act of remembrance to round off what had been an interesting and in many ways enlightening battle eld tour. This is a stage of the Second World War that
is over shadowed somewhat by other major stages of the war however, a more detailed look at what happened will reveal the terrible sacri ce that took place and that Cassino should be remembered as such.
