I think they would be very interested in receiving a document of that period for their archive and might be able to provide more accurate information about the meaning of the script. This institute is certainly the best resource to find information about specific partisans in Savona area.

In the Institute's database there is a card for Antonio Benne (albeit with inconsistencies):

I am willing to make contact in your name, if you authorize me to do so.
Do you have any other similar photos?
Thank you very much for the link from Savona. Do you know what the inconsistencies are? All of the information seems correct to me such as the fathers name and mothers name. Also the rank intendente was listed on another paper I have of his.

If you can make contact for me I would appreciate that very much. Here is the other document I have.

I was wondering perhaps if they had it backwards? Such that he was captured in February and released in April?

Ciao, G

That's how I was reading it also, but it still doesn't make sense. "He was arrested on 4 February and detained until 2 February?"

Ciao Angela. E' proprio questa l'inconsistenza di cui parlavo.

Buongiorno G,

:oops: Yes, I know. Sorry. I realised after I had posted. I was hoping you had missed my post. :)
