For more than seven decades, Adler treasured a black-and-white photo of himself as a young soldier with a broad smile with three impeccably dressed Italian children he is credited with saving as the Nazis retreated northward in 1944. The veteran met the three siblings - now octogenarians themselves - in person for the first time on Monday, eight months after a video reunion. Photo: Antonio Calanni/AP/TT
