The Brazilian Expeditionary Force (BEF) began arriving in Italy in late July 1944 and on into February 1945. During the eight months of the Italian Campaign the Brazilians were the only South American country represented in WW II. They fought in many of the bloodiest and hard fought battles of the campaign and distinguished themselves several times. During their stay they managed to capture 20,573 Axis prisoners while sustaining a loss of 948 of their own. The first missions assigned the earliest BEF members was reconnaissance operations that lasted until the end of August 1944. To accomplish their task the 1st Division received 13 M-8 Greyhounds.
