EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures members of the Italian Civilian Regiment, 245th Legione Milizia Avanguardia, also known as the Principe di Piemonte Legion, during the World War II era in 1941. The image showcases the progression of the Italian military from its ancient Roman roots to the modern day, with the soldiers donning a distinctive uniform that pays homage to the rich history of the Italian military. The 245th Legione Milizia Avanguardia was part of the Italian Militia, a territorial force that was established in 1935 as a complement to the regular Italian Army. The militia was intended to provide additional manpower for the defense of the Italian homeland and was composed mainly of civilians who were not eligible for active military service. The soldiers in the photograph are seen wearing the distinctive beret of the Avanguardia, which was adorned with a red band and the insignia of the Principality of Piedmont. This insignia was a nod to the historical legacy of the Italian military, which can be traced back to the Roman legions and the formation of the Kingdom of Italy in 1861. Despite the proud history and noble intentions of the Italian Militia, the 245th Legione Milizia Avanguardia, like many other Italian military units during World War II, ultimately faced significant challenges and setbacks. The regiment saw action on various fronts, including the Eastern Front and the Italian campaign in North Africa, and suffered heavy losses. This powerful photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the men of the Italian Civilian Regiment, 245th Legione Milizia Avanguardia, during the dark days of World War II. It also highlights the enduring legacy of the Italian military, which can be traced back to the ancient Roman legions and continues to shape the country's history and identity to this day.
