The Poles, New Zealanders, Canadians, Americans, Ghurkas, French and Australians fought against the Nazi Germans at Monte Cassino. After a month of brutal fighting, The Polish Second Corps under General Wladyslaw Anders conquered the monastery located on the top of the Monte Cassino on May 18, 1944. The Polish casualties included 924 dead, 345 missing, and 2,930 injured. The total allied casualties were approximately 55,000. The battle of Monte Cassion is considered to be among the bloodiest battles of WWII, in addition to the battle of Stalingrad, The Warsaw Uprising of 1944, the battle of Kursk and the Normandy Landing.
