	Lone Sentry: Unit History: 91st Infantry Division (Ch. III: Arno River Campaign)
		It was the first unit of either IV Corps or Fifth Army to reach the Arno River and to control the high ground to its south.
		The 362nd Infantry, occupying the positions along the river had two primary missions, to learn as much as possible about the enemy's strength, position, fire-power, and movement, and to scout the river and its banks for information to be used in a possible river-crossing operation later in the month.
		While the 362nd Infantry was patrolling the Arno, 1-13 August, the other two Regiments and Division Artillery concerned themselves with the care and cleaning of equipment, training, and study.

		May Swenson, though, escaping the Victorian world and its sensibility, paints a complex, layered picture of Florence and the Arno River in her poem “Above the Arno.” Her Florence is bright, colorful, busy, and filled with bustle and noise, too, but behind the jubilance is a darker, gloomier undertone.
		The river is very much a part of the natural landscape, changing as time passes, and it is also a part of the human landscape.
		Although the river does not bring events as severe as death or destruction, it does add to the sense of laziness and complacent purposelessness in the city.
