Talk:Bersaglieri
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I copyedited the article, but I'm not sure what was meant by this:
- Their speciality is the fast moving they hold
If anyone knows, please fix it. [[User:CyborgTosser|CyborgTosser (Only half the battle)]] 21:14, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
Dear CyborgTosser,
This might help you:
When marching for an official ceremony: the Italian Bersaglieri are the complete opposite of the French Legionnaires.
The Legionnaires are known for their white cap (called: képi) and their slow march at the 14th of July parade (for the French national day).
For the same kind of official celebrations, Bersaglieri (including the music players) are runnning. In fact, they are always running when they move from one place to another.
[edit] more edits
I've done some minor copy edits, but there are a few links that won't work. Wikipedia has no entry for the Sardinian army, for one thing, and some of this doesn't tie in to the italian history segment very well. I have some info on the Berseglieri kicking around, so I'll add updates when I have time, and correct the links. Was this article originaly in Italian? --Caspiankilkelly 17:02, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
