  • La Storia Del Cappello Alpino
    La storia del cappello alpino ‘Onestà e solidarietà, queste le nostre regole’ E’ il motto della ‘86esima Adunata Nazionale Alpini’, la festa di popolo’ che con entusiasmo, competenza e efficienza si sta avviando verso il traguardo piacentino dei giorni 10-11-12 maggio. Come annunciato anche il nostro Portale offre ampia visibilità alla manifestazione con aneddoti, curiosità e con immagini originali o restaurate da Oreste Grana e Camillo Murelli. Oggi parliamo del Cappello Alpino rielaborando testi tratti da ‘Centomila gavette di ghiaccio’ di G. Bedeschi e da altre fonti. IL NOSTRO CAPPELLO ALPINO L’elemento più rappresentativo degli alpini è senza ombra di dubbio il cappello. È formato da molti elementi che rappresentano il grado, il reggimento, il battaglione, e la specialità di appartenenza. Nel 1873 gli alpini per differenziarsi dal chepì usato dai fanti, adottarono un proprio cappello di feltro nero a forma tronco conica a falda larga; sulla fronte aveva come fregio una stella a cinque punte metallica bianca, con inciso il numero della compagnia. Sul lato sinistro, vi era una coccarda tricolore con, al centro un bottoncino bianco con croce scanalata. Un rosso gallone a V rovesciata decorava il cappello sullo stesso lato della coccarda e sotto questa era infilata una penna nera di corvo. Gli ufficiali portavano lo stesso cappello, ma la penna era d’aquila. Nel 1880 la stella a cinque punte venne sostituita da un fregio metallico bianco: un’aquila che sormontava una cornetta contenente il numero di battaglione. La cornetta si trovava sopra un trofeo di fucili incrociati con baionetta innestata, una piccozza e una scure circondati da una corona di foglie di alloro e quercia.

La Marmora took his inspiration from these troops. His idea was to have a quick and easy-to-manoeuvre Infantry force able to strike the enemy, specifically targeting commanders and other high val- ue or sensitive targets. In addition to this Bersaglieri were used in deep strike oper- ations, and reconnaissance to find routes or enemy formations in close cooperation during the first half of the XIX century with dragoons (cavalry troops that moved the army of the Sardinian Kingdom, like on horse but could dismount and fight as the French, British and Prussian armies, Infantry).

  • 'Something Is Wrong with Our Army…' Command, Leadership & Italian
    Journal of Military and Strategic VOLUME 14, ISSUE 1, FALL 2011 Studies ‘Something is wrong with our army…’ Command, Leadership & Italian Military Failure in the First Libyan Campaign, 1940-41. Dr. Craig Stockings There is no question that the First Libyan Campaign of 1940-41 was an Italian military disaster of the highest order. Within hours of Mussolini’s declaration of war British troops began launching a series of very successful raids by air, sea and land in the North African theatre. Despite such early setbacks a long-anticipated Italian invasion of Egypt began on 13 September 1940. After three days of ponderous and costly advance, elements of the Italian 10th Army halted 95 kilometres into Egyptian territory and dug into a series of fortified camps southwest of the small coastal village of Sidi Barrani. From 9-11 December, these camps were attacked by Western Desert Force (WDF) in the opening stages of Operation Compass – the British counter-offensive against the Italian invasion. Italian troops not killed or captured in the rout that followed began a desperate and disjointed withdrawal back over the Libyan border, with the British in pursuit. The next significant engagement of the campaign was at the port-village Bardia, 30 kilometres inside Libya, in the first week of 1941. There the Australian 6 Division, having recently replaced 4 Indian Division as the infantry component of WDF (now renamed 13 Corps), broke the Italian fortress and its 40,000 defenders with few casualties. The feat was repeated at the port of Tobruk, deeper into Libya, when another 27,000 Italian prisoners were taken.

METHODS Individual-level data of more than 62,000 soldiers born between 1874 and 1899 in north-eastern Italy was used. Almost 10% of these soldiers died in the war. A data set was constructed by linking two different sources, the call-up registers and the Roll of Honour of the fallen Italian soldiers of WWI. RESULTS The risk of death of soldiers in war depended partly on the soldier’s assignment to corps and partly on personal behaviour and individual characteristics.

This article examines his experience of mountain combat and how he communicated aspects of it both to specialist, Futurist audiences and to the general public and soldiers, through newspaper articles, manifestos, ‘words in freedom’ drawings, speeches and essays written between 1915 and 1917. Marinetti’s aim in all of these wartime writings was to gain maximum support for the Futurist movement.
