Botto - the Italian Stallion - so glad to see you here!


Recommended Posts

Botto - was going to respond in the other thread on Italians, but it quickly became not worth visiting.

I am trying to update my info on Italian ranks, responsibilities and combat decorations and wonder if you could review my Italian section at

http://members.shaw.ca/madorosh/table.htm

and tell me what I am missing, especially with regards to "required" ranks for platoon, company, battalion leadership?

I am also looking to update my Italian decorations info at:

I tried to click the page on awards on your site (nicely done, by the way) but get a dead link- or rather, a picture of an Italian soldier telling me the URL is in my head!!

Can you help?

Hello :cool:

lol, 'Italian Stallion', i've been called that before :D

have we met somewhere on another forum?

You have ranks correct for the Royal Army (blackshirt units used a diffrent system based on Roman ranks)

Required ranks would be capitano / igs for a battalion (battaglione) and a tenente / igs for a company sized unit (compagnia)

Some info on awards can be found at:

Military Orders of Savoy were particulary important awards

As for Comando Supremo, yeah its a great site but credit goes to the webmaster, Jim.

I am merely a dedicated member :D

cheers
