Brazil and New Zealand sent troops in significant number to Italy at the end of WWII. To soldiers from disadvantaged classes, that war represented a chance to gain citizenship
rights. While in New Zealand troops the Maori people predominated, in Brazilian troops, the poor recruits were mostly from North Eastern. This work examines the common factors between these armies in a campaign in which both showed great courage and suffered many losses.
