Italian WW1 Military Records

Post by cvwalters »

Hello -

I am hoping someone can lead me in the right direction. I have a gg Uncle who lived in Scandale, Italy during WW1. I recently received a picture of a male relative in an Italian WW1 uniform. I was told by a direct descent of my gg Uncle that he did not serve in the military. However the relative who sent me the picture was told it was the uncle. I would like to confirm this information, so I am hoping somewhere on the internet there are Italian Military records.

Thank you!

Christine

The mailing address for Italian military records that I found a while back is:

MINISTERO DELLA DIFESA
COMMISSARIATO GENERALE ONORANZE CADUTI IN GUERRA (ONORCADUTI)
Via XX Settembre, 123/a 00187 ROMA

However, I never received a response, which is fairly typical of many requests sent to Italy. Good Luck.
