A symbol of the cruelty of the war on the Monte Ortigara, also known as the "Calvary degli Alpini", still carries today the signs of that tragic battle. At a distance of ninety roads, trenches, shacks, stands, galleries and trenches locations allow us to read, as if it were yesterday, the unfolding of the clashes: battalions and battalions of bersaglieri Alpine infantrymen and burned in the cauldron of a strategic necessity that became a tactical nonsense.
Now only the murmur of the rain, the wind hiss or some temporal Thunder remained of that cacophony of orders, screams, blasts, gunfire, cries and cries that have shocked this small portion of the world, the last seen by many and many men, climbed to date from half of Europe, are no longer returned to their countries.
Remain here their souls which, as in the ancient legends, became thousands and thousands of beautiful flowers.
