    The caption reads:

    "George, you take the high road and I'll take the low road, and
    I'll beat you to Messina." :)

    It actually states:

    "General Montgomery and Lt. Gen. George S. Patton look over
    map of Sicily, while General Montgomery was on a visit of the
    7th Army Headquarters in Palermo, Sicily."

    Date: 28 July 1943.

    If anyone would like high-resolution versions of these photos,
    just let me know.
