I have a Father-in-Law and Mother-in-Law who both were living in Post War Italy. All I have ever heard from both of them is that when the Americans came, things started getting better. It was Hell under the Fascist's, German's, British and the likes, but the American Troops were helpful and rebuilt their society. I'm sure there were bad apples back then as now, but look at the big picture and the reality is we saved that hellhole of a continent from it self, picked it up and put it back on its feet.
