Grazie a entrambi per l'aiuto!
Mmogno, is the whole text “cinghia per l’arma - W.C. - miccia e cappsule ?
Thank you, Ciao
You are very welcome for the help, KosmoCramar. So pleased that mmogno was able to fill in the gaps.

I was in my early teens when my grandfather passed away so I was never able to ask him much about the war. I knew he was a partisan / resistance but that was mostly it. I’ve had the photo for years but could never make out the hand writing because of my limited Italian; so I am very happy for all the help here and finally being able to know what was written.
By any chance would you or anyone here happen to know a good resource to find information about specific partisans in WW2? I found some information about the “Partigiano Negrini” which is signed on the back of the card. My grandfathers name was Antonio Benne
It's a fantastic photo. You should be very proud of your grandfather. He was fighting for a cause he believed in and I'm sure he would've been putting himself in constant danger to save others. I wonder what happened to his finger – little finger right hand is bandaged? I'm interpreting the words jotted down on the back of the photo as "Strap for the weapon ...... fuse and detonator". I don't know what the letters W and C mean? It would be interesting to know the time frame the photo was taken in, where it was taken, something about the building included in the photo, and also when he jotted down those words. It's intriguing....!!!
In answer to your question, I personally can't recommend "a good resource to find information about specific partisans in WW2." There is certainly a lot of information online about partisans. One of my dad's brothers was a freedom fighter and I need to investigate this topic further myself. (My dad spent most of the War as a POW in British hands.) If no one else can add to this thread, what I suggest you do is start up another thread on the "Italian History and Culture" section here on IG forum and ask the questions you would like answered there. Maybe you would get more answers there than on the translations forum.
(It would be interesting to request his Lista di Leva and any related military documents, if there are any, to see what they say. There will definitely be a Lista di leva for him.)
Best to you. Let us know if you find out more, or if you have any other queries.
