Patriots killed in Milan

Before thespatriots took over Milan from the Fascists, Mussolini and his retainers were jumpy with the news of the Allied breakthrough at Bologna, and executed friends and relatives of patriots. This is a group of patriots killed by the Fascists lying in the same morgue in Milan which held the bodies of Mussolini, his mistress and seventeen other Fascist big shots after the patriots exacted their revenge.
