Photos of Brazilians in World War II

[joaobr]

Hello gentlemen,

I would like to share with you some photos of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, More known as FEB (Força Expedicionária Brasileira), in World War II.

Brazil sent around 25,000 troops to Italy in the second half of 1944.

I'll add some photos in the next few days, starting with some photos from veteran João Batista Stávola's photo album.
He was summoned in April 1943 and left for Italy on 22/09/1944. He was part of the Brazilian artillery cup at General Falconière's headquarters.
