  How a friendship forged in war between a Welsh captain and an Irish chaplain with the Eighth Army in Italy led to their adoption of a hilltop village destroyed during a massacre by a German army in retreat. The small Tuscan village still remembers the acts of kindness by the British officers, dedicating a street to their Good Samaritans.
