The initiative called "Project El Alamein, was conceived and coordinated by the University of Padua and the SIGGMI. (Italian Society of Military Geography and Geology) and involves important Italian and Egyptian organizations. Support operation is ensured by 'ANPdI and leave Folgore and the project was sponsored by the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate.
aim of this initiative is to preserve the site of the battle by creating a geographic database in order to create a natural park museum, the historical development of culture and tourism of the area.
We started Jan. 20 and from Malpensa airport in the afternoon we arrived at the English Cemetery at El Alamein. The field is mounted Naqb Rala (front area to the south where he worked largely with the Division Folgore and Pavia).
The next day we head to Altitude 105, where the company was at the 19 th of the seventh battalion near right of the minefield. Here there was perhaps the onslaught of the third battle. In fact, the night of October 23, 1942, units of infantry and one mechanized brigade (3,500 men armed and 80carri) and other specialized units attacked these positions defended by 350 men with a battery against tank platoons and two 47mm mortars. Resisting above all limits, the dawn 19 ^ Cp. and 6 ^ Cp. were destroyed.
Divided into teams, we mapped and surveyed 110 locations. In the afternoon we head to el Qaret Himeimat, two coral hills that appear on a plain that those who were lost to enemy lines. In this position, a handful of heroes has withstood the blows of the artillery until the final epilogue: none surrendered and no one back a meter.
return to camp we go Naqb Rala at stations where he was the command of the Fifth Battalion. the 186th Regiment. Continuing where we came Maj. Izzo MOVM and a group of his men stand their ground in the French Legion: I survived the 98 paratroopers in 34. Saturday, January 22
resume the interrupted work on the day before and I realize as the ground is absolutely flat and rocky, and how difficult it was to shelter from the firestorm that swept through the area. Identified a complex benchmark, we arrange for groups to restore the same, digging up the state it was in October of 1942, cataloging the finds, and restoring and making everything visible. In the afternoon we moved to field positions of the 21 ^ Cp. of the Seventh Battalion where we recalled the figure of our hero Siena, the MOVM Roberto Bandini. By sharing we head to where they kill the Deir Alinda MOVM Major Rossi and remember him on his own command post. Here we found the pieces of a slow burning fuse that lit, they were still very efficient. The last visit was made to the hospital in el Abd Qaret also known as "Hospital Brescia, consisting of a series of trenches, underground chambers and the air inlet port protected by jute bags still intact and a high perimeter wall.
The next morning, Sunday, January 23, We shall remove the field and at 8.30 we arrive at the Shrine of El Alamein. We have less than 1 hour and 30 so there we frame and enter on tiptoe, without even breathing. The emotion is strong and deployed before the altar, we begin the ceremony;'ll read the prayer of the Decorated to remind all those who lost their lives in this corner of earth, could hardly hold back tears.
Melancholy and sorrow I've tried looking at the thousands of tombstones that surround the walls of various rooms of the shrine in which are containing the remains of the fallen gravestones and even more impressed with the writing UNKNOWN that are lost to view
d 'eye. L 'experience in the places where, seventy years ago, suffered and sacrificed themselves heroically these men left in me feelings and emotions very difficult to describe.
Driven by a strong lure, the same being able to walk on the sand watching the starry sky, dig the same hole eating the same dust, albeit in very different circumstances, made me understand the serious difficulties that had to operate Our soldiers, responding to problems that often led them to make the sacrifice more extreme. I am sure that such deeds, even if it turned into defeat, must make some amazing victories as proud. In fact, in the belief of the ideals that animate me, this experience has strengthened even more about my principles of devotion to those who fought with honor, without any hesitation doing his duty as a soldier. The emotions were strong and feel in your ceremony, aware and proud that it was my duty to recall all Decorated for Military Valor and the Institute that represents them.
The wonderful experience, although a few days, will be something special and memorable, that I will carry within me all my life, ready as soon as possible. to return to these places to help perpetuate the memory.

What color are the fools?! Won the Honor

Giannetto, thirteen year old student of the third media, asks his father: "Today, the professor began to talk about 150th Anniversary of the Unification of Italy and us said it is a beautiful thing, we should all feel proud to be Italian and we should all be grateful to those who strive to achieve it. But if so, because then there are Ministers who say we should celebrate on March 17th? Because there are mayors and governors who say there's nothing to celebrate? "
's father, assassinated with blinders on, mutters. "See John, unfortunately we in Italy, we had the misfortune to have communist , you can not tell you to remember, however, were those who ate children and now they are cleaned and teachers or judges or bankers, but deep down, are still the same "
" But I do not think that ministers are really, "says Giannetto typical with the innocence of his age. "E even the manufacturers are, and yet it is they who are saying that we need to work on March 17! "
" But they say it for the good of us all, because now they are trying to patch all the troubles that have combined Communists in all these years, "says the father begins to get excited. "Remember that while we want the good of our country, the Communists of Italy is not interested in anything, so much that they wanted to deliver to Stalin"
"Yes I know because I have begun to study it in school," said Giannetto "But I think they are communists who now want to divide, not Communists are the ones who set fire to a silhouette depicting Garibaldi
that those who are not Communists, in Venice, forbade exposing the Tricolore, or worse, always with that flag we wanted to clean the ..... .? "

The father, surprised to prepare the child begins to falter and hides behind a series of" what is not true, "but who told you", "those are things that are said to be only Perhaps a tone ".....




But Giannetto maramaldesco, he insisted: "Dad, tell me why to feel and understand our anthem, there was Need Benigni (click to hear the anthem), you always told me that it's almost a communist, while none of those you admire has ever done? "
" But you're saying, "said the father a bit 'ringalluzzito, "thinks rather the' idiot of Councillor who refused to sing the anthem, in honor of fallen Officer of the Alpini in Afghanistan?"
"Of course he's an idiot because it is polluted ideologically, but I seem to be in good company and not just those of his political faith, "Giannetto said a bit 'hoisted.
"But Famme understood: that guesses the fallen officer with Benigni? Why do two things diametrically opposed to controversy? "
His father, now on the ropes, declared:" Tomorrow I'm going to enroll in a private school! "

The birth of the Kingdom of Italy, March 17, 1861, will be by the end of the siege of Gaeta. I, like all of us, and I'm not ready to defend our homeland with its life but this does not prevent me to remember with respect those who have fallen in defense of a fortress, until February 13 1861, was one of the worst in Europe.








I'm not an original type and are in good company: in 1868 the General Lanzavecchia Buri to put this inscription in what was once the battery Philipstad Gaeta:

PRODI TO THAT IN 'SIEGE OF GAETA 1860-61
BETWEEN THE FIST WEAPONS AGAINST THE MEMORY
valiant DROPPED THE ITALIAN ARMY CONSECRATES 1868

King who defended his kingdom was Francis II of Bourbon, Frankie ... yes really him but maybe it was not so ridiculous if his men received the honor of arms of Savoy commanded by the Carabinieri General Enrico Cialdini (later Duke of Gaeta), which, in truth, it was a much softer!
With the King, there was the young Queen Maria Sofia (the sister of Sissi, Empress of Austria) who live to go to find the Italian prisoners in Austria during World War I to find the Neapolitans and speak their dialect. Some say that years earlier had funded Gaetano Brescia, but that's another story.
As the plaque says, were the countless acts of bravery on both sides but the guns were ruled Piedmont-perhaps for the first time in military history-and shrapnel shells bursting in air, splashing by all parties, the History had already decided, and so the poor Frank could only stop it by September 7, 1860 to February 13 the following year.
And to say that September 7 Garibaldi had the courage to go alone to Naples and was presented in a carriage in what is now Piazza Plebiscito; of service to the artillery guns of Castel S. Elmo saw him well, but Frankie told not to shoot because he did not want death and destruction in Naples him! And so to the students of Nunziatella and Colonel De Liguori, who commanded the garrison of Castel Nuovo (Maschio Angioino laws), there is nothing that they also go to Gaeta with drums and flags in my head.
Up the month of November, the operations took place around Capua on the Volturno and Mola di Gaeta, where the flag of the 1st Regiment. Grenadiers was decorated with the Gold Medal at the V: M. Also on the Volturno, the battle was long and uncertain only the charisma of Garibaldi handed the victory to the Red Shirts. The remains of the Bourbon Army gathered in the front walls of Gaeta and some crossed the border with the Papal State Department and then dissolve.

In mid-November, the strength of the Army closed in Gaeta Bourbon compounded to 934 officers and 12,000 enlisted men. With them, to share hardships and dangers, as well as the King and Queen, were also members of the Court, the Apostolic Nuncio and the Diplomatic Corps accredited yet. The artillery had 506 pieces, but of these, only 329 could be placed in drums and many had little use for range and accuracy, with only four stripes
In November, the Army Corps of Savoy had 808 officers, 15,755 enlisted men, 1669 horses and 42 cannons. At 1 January 1861, had 166 artillery pieces with big guns Cavalli divided into 23 batteries of these 153 fired simultaneously in the last days.
The significant events during the siege were made a sally with about 2000 men from Gen.Bosco and a subsequent action to clear the firing range of the front of land. For the besieged was the worst day of Christmas when it rained gunfire on the city 500. Besides the artillery, had to withstand a typhus epidemic which caused many casualties among military and civilians, regardless of age, wealth and rank. Under these conditions there were episodes of picturesque Neapolitan sailors, in the stands and under fire, playing tresette or dancing the tarantella to ridicule the besiegers.
The capitulation came when, in late January and early February, occurred frightening explosions caused by precise shots that hit it a few deposits of dust, causing untold havoc.
On completion of the shots 56,727 were fired by Savoy and 35,244 by Napoletana. The losses were 46 dead and 321 wounded in one of the Piedmont and 826 dead and 569 wounded over 200 missing and 800 patients between the besieged. It has never been possible to trace the loss of civilians, and again in early 900, the Gaetani demanded compensation for war damages suffered. This question I got to see an old guide of parliamentary held to resolve this long outstanding issue.
During the siege, the young Queen was that animated the defenders, rushing where the battle was more intense and he earned the affection and admiration of the soldiers in foreign courts: the Army also recognized the Sarda brave the abnegation of Maria Sofia.
in arming the Savoy, was the Commander, General Cialdini, the tireless promoter, soliciting and directing his officers to continue the action that had to be so effective, but without unnecessary cruelty because

"We fought against the Italians, and This was necessary, a painful motion. Epper I could not invite demonstrations of joy, I could not invite the insulting triumph of winning ... ... .. The soldier fights Vittorio Emanuele and forgiving. "

As I have always liked this story, one summer I was ten days in Gaeta, on the beach Serapo and I searched the sites of history, but these places are no more because a mayor in the 60s bomber demolished the fortress walls to get the waterfront. The only place of history and 'own beach Serapo is that instead of a hill plateau after 1806 because it was an obstacle to the eye and shot by the besieged.
Then I also tried something this time but what I could find and 'a commemorative medal of the 3rd Regiment. Genius telegrapher and a topographic map of Gaeta and its surroundings that is dated February 4, 1861 and the signing of the Higher Commander Lieutenant General Louis Frederick Menabrea Army Corps of Engineers. These objects are not certain memorabilia siege but remember him with particular force, at least for me.
Of course I was not there but what I tried to tell modestly from:
- The end of a Kingdom - Raffaele de Cesare - Citta 'di Castello
-1895 - The Siege of Gaeta, the War Department - Rome 1924
- Francis II of Bourbon, the last King of Naples - Pier Giusto Jaeger - A. Mondadori 1982
, and more and I 'happened to read on the subject.

John.

PS: From Jack, I'm not sure that the solid lines on the topographic map indicating the direction of fire of the batteries Piedmont that the Friends Artillery dissolve the doubt!

postponed mediation condominium



E 'victory of principles that underpin our right or another lost opportunity to better operate the judiciary?
The OAU (Organisation Advocacy Unit) has always challenged the institution of mediation by saying that would lead to a forced waiver of constitutional rights and undermines the right of defense and access to justice. In essence, the lawyers are opposed to the fact that a third party (the mediator), that does not belong judicial body, can have a high decision-making power and can use it without the parties being assisted by their lawyers. The OAU has also submitted an appeal to the TAR to the change in mandatory mediation on the grounds of objective obstacles such as: unavailability of classrooms in the courts; small number of conciliators; limited time to provide adequate service etc.etc. but many groups who want the mediation (Coldiretti, Confagricoltura, Confapi, Confindustria) and some professional associations (architects, surveyors, accountants, engineers), in contrast, showed that the mediation authorities are now locally based and have the organizational means and financial resources to fulfill every request.
The meeting of the Senate has finally approved the Decree-law converting the cd "thousand extensions" and this confirms the entry into force, to March 21 next year, the compulsory mediation in the following subjects; real rights; division, inheritance, family agreements, lease, loan, rent company, medical liability, libel, insurance contracts, banking and finance. It 'been extended for one year instead of the mandatory mediation in disputes relating to building and road traffic accidents in Italy account for most of the litigation. It 's the classic Italian-style solution, a blow to the circle and a shot in the barrel, which dissatisfied moving away from all that was originally anticipated.
The main purpose of the mediation, in accordance with the principles of the European community, is to weed out the court cases mandating, of these, to a third party (the mediator) who, at a cost fixed by law (and accessible to low all) leads the contenders to a conciliation agreement (shared by the parties). The broker, according to those rules, must have specific skills, however, will never be the same as an ordinary court with several years of experience. E 'therefore clear that the cases be assigned to be the simplest in terms of legal and those which, because of difficulties investigations, have a longer duration of the case. Among them, occupy a prominent place on their communal disputes and traffic accidents which clog the registrars of the courts. Both the condominium issues, road accidents, in fact, have a limited number of legal rules to which to refer, but in order to establish the causality of the accident, requiring adequate technical advisors (doctors, engineers, surveyors) which could be used by mediators in times that are much narrower than the Bible that they use the courts.
Logic would, therefore, that because of disputes related to traffic accidents and building maintenance issues would have to leave immediately and if its a slip was imposed, the extension would affect other civil disputes, regulatory and other thickness of well resolved more through the fact that interpretations of the law. Especially condominium disputes, then, relate to personal relationships that continue over time and issue a ruling, by necessity, leads to further exacerbate the bitterness between the rivals, while a conciliation agreement, accepted by both parties, and do not meet divide.
Why, then, was made a choice so contrary to logic and reason? We'll never know, the only thing certain is that, for another year, those who argue for the dog that barks, for improperly using the car yard pool, the water stain on the ceiling or the car accident (mostly individuals who pay their own pockets) should apply to lawyers and courts to protect individual rights (or of their principles) and, in this kind of battles, we are lawyers the only winners.
Francis.
