Factual Questions

I have found several translators on the internet but get the same results - nothing found:

BRIGATA PARACADUTISTI FOLGORE

Thanks

Paratrooper Brigade “Folgore”…it’s an Italian paratrooper unit that’s currently, I believe, in Afghanistan. They were most famous for their actions in the battle of El Alamein, where they held off a British assault.

Thanks. An Italian friend gave me a shirt with those words and when I could not find any translation for any of the words I got nervous. Some of my friends have an extraordinary sense of humor and I was beginning to think I might be wearing a shirt that said kick me - actually something a bit more creative.

Upon searching for the entire phrase it showed sites that seemed to indicate no joke :slight_smile:

Folgore means ‘Lightning’.

Thank you, it makes sense looking at the design on the shirt.

You’re welcome! I love the Italian translation threads. Venete, tutti Dopisti, domandate da mi più! (Come on, all you Dopistas, ask me more!)

Be careful what you ask for! I’ve got a book on the Mannlicher-Carcano rifle in PDF format, **Il 91 **I’d *love * to get translated.

No guns, please, guns give me the creeps.
