Uniform Identification

[Thomas Codispoti]

Attached is a picture of my Grandfather. He was born Jan 4 1879 in Scafati, Italy. I would like to identify his uniform.

I would appreciate any help you can provide.

Thank you

well Thomas, wish i could help. I see you got 197 views, no responses. Sorry to see that. I am in the same situation. My great uncle served, his two pics attached. I believe he served in sicily between 1910 and 1924 since he finally immigrated to Australia in 1925. He did come to the U.S. once in 1905, but returned. I'm trying to pinpoint when these uniforms were in use, and by which regiment, etc. Would be nice to know his military background. Hope someone on this site can help shed some light on it. Thanks.

I am in the same boat. My grandfather was born in 1889 in Fondochello, Sicily, served in the Army sometime before immigrating to the US in 1912
