    The History: The VI Corps embarked for the Mediterranean Theater in February of 1943.  The corps trained in North Africa then attacked
    Italy
    at
    Paestum
    .  They fought up the
    Italian
    Peninsula
    until they were relieved in January 1944.  On January 22, the Corps landed at
    Anzio
    .  They were able to withstand fierce German counterattacks, and advanced on
    rome
    , which fell on June 6, 1944.  The VI Corps was then used by the Seventh Army in the assault on
    Southern France
    .  The corps pursued all Germans out of Southern France and then moved into
    Germany
    .  They eventually pushed to
    Innsbruck
    ,
    Austria
    where they accepted the surrender of the German 19th Army.  This was one of the rare Corps that participated in three assault landings..
