As the initial expansion of the Allied beachhead at Anzio drew to a halt, the inevitable counterattacks began.

The factory finally fell to the Germans on the 9th after repeated attacks. Realizing the importance of this position, the Allied command ordered a counterattack by the U.S. 45th Infantry Division.
