Thanks ZippZap for this beautiful Map, very nice present.
I have had same problem as mnlk999 and Lejo, and solved it following dunkelgrun advise, thanks dunkel.
Months ago in one of my posts I asked for this Map, Why? because about almost 40 years ago I got a collection of three books related to WWII, the first of them have a very detailed narrative of events about Monte Cassino struggle, from the Green wolves (I think this was the name of this group of soldiers) defence as well as the beautiful stubbornness of a British Commander (Justin ?) attacking by land again and again until a group of Gurkas reached the hilltop (germans had already abandoned the area). A phrase come to my mind: "only Berlin received more of such a massive amount of bombs than Monte Cassino area". The other two books were "Japan defeated" and "Post War's Wars" (in Spanish) which I still have. Sadly, I loaned the first book (beginning of the War, and Europe T.O) to a very good friend of mine, who died moths afterwards, and to me was steep uphill to claim the book to his widow, so ...
... Sorry for this sidetrack gentlemen.
