Lieutenant Colonel 139th Regim, infantry, from Naples, to memory. A superior officer of elected military virtues, his own colonel was wounded, he took command of the regiment during a bitter flattening. Twice wounded, he refused to move away from the positions to give again, in a particularly delicate moment, his contribution to the achievement of the success. While they were being cut off - the last enemy resistances, he was hit again and fell like a hero to the head of his infantry thrown to victory.
