The Sangro story

The Sangro story

Sangro (Saangro) – Noun: a river in central Italy, site of the advance by the New Zealand Second Division in November 1943. For us: a place of courage which commemorates, respects and honours the sacrifice for freedom and the rule of law. Memorialised in: Ralph Hotere’s Sangro Litany series, a tribute to those who fell on the Sangro front.
