Rome, 12 November (LaPresse) – "Today, Italy unites, with emotion and deep gratitude, in remembering the women and men – military and civilian – who chose to put their lives at the service of others, to defend freedom, peace and the dignity of every human being. It is they, with their courage and silent generosity of duty, who have written one of the most noble pages in our recent history. Their memory does not belong only to the Armed Forces or institutions: it belongs to all of us. It is a living heritage that speaks of altruism, love for one's neighbour, and that extraordinary Italian ability to bring hope where it seemed there could be none." Thus spoke Defence Minister Guido Crosetto on the Day of Remembrance for Military and Civilian Fallen in International Peace Missions.
