Answer The Italian Campaign was a long campaign that began with the invasion of Sicily in July 1943 and did not end until the Germans surrendered on 2 May 1945. The campaign can be divided into two parts: the period prior to the fall of Rome on 4 June 1944 and the period after that. The first part was a time when the Italian Campaign was the major front of the Allied advance in Europe. After the Normandy landings in June 1944, this began the second part of the campaign and approximately 1/3 of the forces were withdrawn out of Italy in support of the campaign in France. Battle for Sicily - July & August 1943 Battles for Cassino and Anzio - Jan - May 1944 Battle of Gothic Line - Sept 1944
