With all the talk of the strong ties between the Syracuse football team and the 10th Mountain Division, I happened across a documentary called The Last Ridge, that cover the exploits of the 10th in WWII, when they were deployed for the first time to the mountains of Italy. It focuses on a situation where the Germans held high ground on a 2000 foot cliff and had repulsed a number of attacks from the Allies before the 10th came and got the job done.
Nice story for fans of the 10th. It is being played on PBS stations throughout the country right now. If you click on the Where to watch blue button in the link, you should be able to find the next couple of times it will be shown in your area.

Go 10th! Go Cuse! War Damn Otto!
