Hi
Writhe me on Regio Esercito forum, that I should writhe to you in Italian language!!!!

There 36 battaglioni libici in WW2 history (1940-1943)... a very hard thing to writhe all the stories and so on.......(a Fra vacce piano....)

All the best
Maurizio

I too would be very interested in this information, but please forgive me, as I speak no Italian.

Count on me for the translation, if you need it to be done.

Also I ask. I read Italian

Could we all pool our combined knowledge, and see how many of the 36 we can place?

Then we can set about researching the 'missing' ones.

[david]

Two years later. How many of the 36 have we got Gents?

Is anyone interested in this thread?

Shall I post the very little that I have?
