Lived in Caves At first the allied invaders lived in caves and huts in the mountains, ekeing out a bare subsistence. Their mission was to make life hell for the Germans with raids, ambushes and demolitions.

They ambushed German retreat lines, battled German rear guards, watched through field glasses as Germait marines and fliers fought with German infantrymen for possession of vehicles in their panic-stricken retreat. They made the railway such a thing of terror that trains stopped running at night. The last trains leaving south Greece, picking up nazi rear guards from pillboxes along the railway tracks, were seen spraying machine gun fire blindly into the mountainsides against imaginary ambushes.

And yet the Americans got in the parting blows by slamming bazookas into two of these trains, wrecking them both. 9:30 a. m. Sunday school. 9:30 a.
