Other websites on the bombardment of the school of Gorla
The history of the school of Gorla is also mentioned on the Internet by many other sites, here are some of them:
the first one that we recommend to visit is that of the "Gorla Domani" Association, which for years has been involved in cultural activities and initiatives concerning the social life of the neighborhood.

Here is the story about the school of Gorla:http://www.gorladomani.it/html/piccoli-martiri.html
Visitors to our pages that do not reside in the City of Milan and to those who are Milanese are not informed, we point out a site created to keep alive the memory of another district, that of Cascina Gobba (or simply "La Gobba") located on the outskirts of the city, at the end of Padova Avenue on the border with the Municipality of Vimodrone; the author has collected a large amount of photographic material and evidence concerning the village of Gobba and the nearby district of Crescenzago, also talking about Gorla with the story of the bombing of the school in our neighborhood.

This one, to which we are honored to have informed us the story of the school of Gorla in 1999, more than a site can be called an immense history book.
We are talking about "storiologia.it" (former "cronologia.it") edited by Franco Gonzato, who managed to put online the equivalent of 1000 volumes of 1000 pages each (with over 2 billion visits between the two dominiums) where the story is told from the dawn of time to the present day, constantly updated thanks to the contribution of external collaborators.

If you then try to type "20 October 1944" or "Gorla school" on any search engine, you will be amazed by the number of "historical copy-paste researchers", we are talking about all those who without even communicating with an e-mail (do not ask permission) have made new pages by copying ours, also reporting the errors that were intentionally inserted with the purpose of "reveal" who defines himself as an expert but does not really know anything about Gorla, and has used this sad story to get political publicity, both on the right and on the left; to them we say only "be ashamed" not so much for being able only to copy, but for involved in squalid chicken coops the memory of 200 children killed in war.
I prefer not to talk about who has even used the story of this bombing as a track to write a novel with which to participate in a competition for young writers, obviously arguing that the plot had been designed by his mind.
Have at least respect not so much for those who commit a large part of their time for about twenty years to treat this site, but for those children who are not only more alive; at least let us forgive by coming to bring a bouquet of flowers and to apologize to the Little Martyrs of the school of Gorla.
To those who may have come to mind that even I have copied, I will simply say that these pages were born in 1999 (before relying on a free provider, then with this domain) thanks to the collaboration of some Gorla inhabitants, children at the time, survivors of that raid (one of them in my family) and with the help of Dr. Achille Rastelli, historian, for the page concerning the 15th US Air Force.
I do not say anything else ...
