Battle of Authion
http://dbpedia.org/resource/Battle_of_Authion an entity of type: Thing
The Battle of Authion was a military engagement that took place towards the end of World War II, shortly before the defeat of Nazi Germany in 1945. Units of the French Army were sent to the French Alps to clear an important route from central France to Italy. A critical choke point was the 2,080 metre (6,820 feet) high , held by determined but weakened German and Italian forces. Field Marshal Harold Alexander authorised the assault on Authion on 10 April 1945.

La battaglia dell'Authion ebbe luogo tra il 10 e il 12 aprile 1945, nella fase finale della seconda guerra mondiale, sull'arco occidentale alpino. Il Governo provvisorio della Repubblica francese inviò reparti della France libre tra le Alpi francesi per occupare un importante passo che dalla Francia meridionale conduce in Italia: a questo scopo divenne cruciale la conquista del Massiccio dell'Authion alto 2 080 metri, presidiato da forze tedesche e italiane, determinate, ma indebolite. La battaglia assunse un carattere disperato per i difensori che, dopo due giorni, preferirono ripiegare.
