lambert Posted July 3, 2017 Posted July 3, 2017 Pasubio is a limestone massif located on the border between the provinces of Vicenza and Trento, bordered by Val Leogra, Passo del Pian delle Fugazze, Vallarsa, Val Terragnolo, Pass of Borcola, Val Posina and Colle Xomo. Conjugate the Little Dolomites at Folgaria's Plateau. It was an important place for World War I fighting. Lambert https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strada_delle_52_gallerie Lambert
bryansk1959 Posted July 3, 2017 Author Posted July 3, 2017 Thank you Lambert, but what does the date 29.08.1926 mean?
lambert Posted July 3, 2017 Posted July 3, 2017 (edited) Not sure, but may be the date the medal was awarded ( It's a guess) Lambert Edited July 3, 2017 by lambert
bryansk1959 Posted July 3, 2017 Author Posted July 3, 2017 Here's what I found in the Internet: The Commemorative Medal of the 1st Armada was coined in 1918 by the sculptor Leonardo Bistolfi and distributed, with relative attestation, starting in 1924.Regards.Alexander
bryansk1959 Posted July 4, 2017 Author Posted July 4, 2017 Thanks Japan x for the help.( https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ossario_del_Pasubio )
lambert Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 " Viene costruito a quota 1.217 slm tra il 1920 e il 1926 per iniziativa della Fondazione "3 novembre 1918 pro combattenti della I Armata", inaugurato il 29 agosto 1926. " It seems I got it right. Lambert I love these Italian Commemorative Medals of the Great War ..
