Welcome to the website of the World
War II Italian army
reenactment unit battaglione Alpini
sciatori « Monte Cervino » (Alpini ski battalion Monte
Cervino) (Reenacted).
The btg. «
Monte Cervino » is dedicated to all Italian soldiers and
officers
that served in the Italian Armed forces during the war.
The btg.
« Monte Cervino » is
organized and
chartered as a member of the WWII Historical Re-Enactment Society, Inc.
(HRS website
http://www.worldwartwohrs.org
). Since
1975, the WW-II HRS has brought history to life as an educational hobby
and has
provided its members and the public with an authentic, safe time
machine to
that period, using authentic uniforms, gear, and vehicles.
The membership
is comprised of historians, teachers, students, military collectors,
veterans,
and others interested in the Second World War. Members
provide displays
and battle simulations for the public, tactical simulations for
members, school
presentations, veteran reunions, air show displays, parade
participation, and
other community events when called upon.
Our Mission
The mission of the members of the battaglione
Alpini sciatori « Monte Cervino »
(Reenacted) is to
preserve the military history of the Regio Esercito (Royal Army) and
the
Repubbica Sociale Italiana (Socialist Republic of Italy), and to
educate
members and the public about the men and women that served and the
units that
fought during the Second World War. This mission shall be accomplished
by participation
in living history displays; parades and ceremonies; battle
reenactments; and
the collection and preservation of memorabilia from that ear. We
encourage
members to create secondary impression of other Italian military units
to
better educate the public of the wide range Italian military
involvement in the
Second World War.
