A couple of photographs The first shows a fante posing before leaving for war in his mod. 1909 da truppa uniform. The second photo is from a period shortly before the Great War, shows a Bersagliere with his typical capercaillie feathered headdress.

Certainly! I am Italian and I live in Italy, here obviously many of our relatives actively participated in the First World War, the remains of that conflict are still visible today. These two photographs in particular belong to unfortunately unnamed soldiers. I often recover these objects from particular events or recovery groups through excavations or abandoned houses. I always hope to be able to find a relative or someone connected to the faces or stories of these soldiers, to be able to return them.
