Vincere nel tempo.

In these 2 pages are expressed some thoughts about the war and the value of “Victory" of the sailors of the Decima Flottiglia MAS . The Decima Flottiglia MAS (Decima Flottiglia Mezzi d'Assalto) was an Italian commando frogman unit of the Regia Marina (Italian Royal Navy) created during the Fascist regime. theDecima MAS took part in a number of daring raids on Allied shipping. In 1943, after the Italian dictator Benito Mussolini was ousted, Italy left the Tripartite Pact and joined the Allies. Some of the Xª MAS men who were stationed in German-occupied northern Italy enlisted to fight for Mussolini's newly formed Italian Social Republic (Repubblica Sociale Italiana or RSI) and retained the unit title, but were primarily employed as an anti-partisan force operating on land. Other Xª MAS men in southern Italy or other Allied-occupied areas joined the Italian Co-Belligerent Navy as part of the Mariassalto (Naval Assault) unit.
