As light infantry troops they were encouraged to have a greater level of independence and initiative than the regular Italian army troops and this élan served them well during the war.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDuring World War II the Bersaglieri became a focal point of Italy's push towards mobile warfare. Several units of these highly motivated, aggressive troops were equipped with bicycles or motorcycles to fight alongside the Italian armoured and motorised divisions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSeeing action in the early years of the war in France and Greece they would also acquit themselves well in North Africa with 12 regiments fighting in the East Africa, Western Desert and Sicily campaigns. On several occasions Bersaglieri units fought to the last man as their German allies fled, belying the modern day view that Italian soldiers were largely craven. The Bersalgieri saw combat on the Eastern Front against Stalin's Red Army.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAvanti Italia!\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBox contains 30 highly customisable plastic figures, bases and waterslide decal sheet.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eSupplied unassembled and unpainted.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"bolt-action-product-details\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGame system:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bolt Action\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Italy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Infantry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSubtype:\u003c\/strong\u003e Infantry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct category:\u003c\/strong\u003e Miniatures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHobby note:\u003c\/strong\u003e Miniatures are supplied unpainted and may require assembly.
