(The Meritorious Corps)

Foreword

If you ask an Italian to make a list of the things which secure freedom from care and troubles to his daily life, you'd better believe that, amongst the first five, he will include "L'Arma dei Carabinieri" (the Carabinieri Corps) or, as friendly called, "La Benemerita" (The Meritorious Corps).
I have therefore prepared this page with the double aim of both commending the merits of these men for their daily, tenacious and valuable service rendered to our Homeland and to let, by means of the resources provided by the Internet, foreign cyber-countrymen know more about a Corps whose history, traditions and mission make it unique amongst the worldwide military elite.

Disclosure : Neither the Carabinieri Corps nor the Department of Defense have authorized, endorsed or otherwise influenced the compilation of these pages which have been edited under my sole responsibility.

Faithful Throughout the Centuries...

Welcome to the first Web site entirely dedicated to the Carabinieri Corps.

As reported in the Foreword above, this site being a personal initiative of mine, I declare that its contents ... including errors, if any, omissions or delays in updating data or information, are my sole responsibility.
While the first version of this site was concentrated on one Web page only, this revised one has been fully redesigned, maintaining however a thorough presentation trail, in order to improve the retrieval speed of text and images.

Now we are ready to proceed to the "Headquarters" and begin our travelling into this "Italian legend made up of real men!"

• The Corps history
• The Corps organization
• The Corps Hall of Glory

Thanks, Meritorious Corps
