This is in mid-September 1994. Going up a mountain in Val d’Aosta for training.
What a day…
We used the “Norwegian” hat for all business but official ones. There we used the Alpini hat. So, I guess the guys above were going to be sworn in. The solemn ceremony was held each month for the new echelon. Each month from a different brigade. They look very raw and not too happy. That’ll change soon. But after one month, such days were really tough on many kids.
I guess in my time. All equipment and the looks fit.
