Hi Oleg,

In Italy they have the "Medaglia al Valore Aeronautico". It was instituted by royal decree in 1927, finalized 1932. It comes in three versions, gold, silver and bronze.

On the uniform this badge is worn (nastrino della medaglia d'oro al valor aeronautico):

I speak Italian, lived there for four years, but am no expert on Italian medals. Hopefully an Italian forum memeber can help more.

I think i could help you a little bit more, but Maraz is italian as well and more into historical italian wings than me...

I'll let you know ;)

Well, then.... - Are the Italians stepping up with help and info?

I know I'd be exstatic if my country would be as well-represented as Italy in SoW-BoB...

Are there no museums in Italythat 1C can contact? surely ther must be one that has the relevent information?

Hi

I would suggest Oleg contacts the Italian Air Force museum (Museo Storico dell' Aeronautica Militare Italiana) near Rome. I have visited twice and it is a wonderful museum - full of unique artifact's and I'm sure they will have details of the awards for the Italian air force.

They certainly have clothing, etc. from what I remember.

FWIW this is a good image of the "medaglia al valore aeronautico", the gold version, before 1943.
