Operation Encore was the Allied offensive timed for February 1945, to break through the Gothic Line. This was initiated at the army instead of corps level. This comprised an assault of the 10th Mountain Division and the Brazilian Expeditionary Force to secure the high ground dominating Italian Highway 64 where it crossed the Apennine Mountains.[1]
