Moro River Crossing report & Christmas rationing 12/15/1943

Today we have two segments from the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. The first, which originally aired over the CBC on December 15, 1943, is a report from Matthew Halton. It was recorded in Italy as Canadian troops crossed the Moro River during the fight against German soldiers. The second segment, which also aired this week in 1943, offers families advice on how to prepare for Christmas while living with the restrictions and rationing in place during the war.
