Product: 1:72 WW2 - Italian Mount.Troops Alpini
During World War II, Alpini divisions where used on several fronts. In
1942 the Italian expeditionary force was sent on the Russian front to
support the Wehrmacht. It included the Alpini Julia, Tridentina and
Cuneense divisions. The Italian Alpini took active part at the defense
of the Don front but they were outnumbered and surrounded by the troops
of the Red Army. The Alpini divisions were forced to retreat with a long
and heroic march, in dire conditions, through the cold wastes of the
Russian steppe. During the retreat they were also engaged in tough
clashes. The most famous is the battle of Nikolajewka that took place on January1943
