    Mussolini Badge


    Recommended Posts

    This is a badge celebrating the Italian victory in the Battle of Antalo-Amba Aradon (Ethiopia) on 15-16 February 1936.

    The badge approximately says (not an expert in Italian...):

    "11th Alps Regiment

    Lightning as the eagle, Strong as the lion

    Antalo

    15-16 February 1936".

    Hope this helps.

    Cheers.

    Ch.

    One of the many commemorative medalions created for units in the Italian Military this one to the 11th Mountain Regiment.

    Many such medalions are totaly unofficial but tolarated as souvineers by members of the regiments.
