Fascist R.S.I. medal of the 1st Assault Legion Tagliamento

£25.95

Italian Fascist medal of the 1st Assault Legion Tagliamento.

This was a military unit of the Italian Social Republic. It was raised in 1944 being reconstituted from members of the 63rd M.V.S.N. Blackshirt Battalion. It was involved primarily in the brutal anti-partisan warfare of 1944-45. The medal is cast from solid brass. It is quite crude (often the case with these late war R.S.I. awards) but the design is very striking. An attractive and rarely seen award. Supplied with a length fascist tricolore ribbon.
