Dogdaddy,

Lately, I have seen several Alpini hats and most look like someone took a civilian hat and tried to shape it to look like one of these. Some look the right shape but the eagle insignia is really sloppy. I like mine better.

 

To go with the hat, I purchased this arm shield for the 2nd TRIDENTINA Alpini Division. These shields were worn on the left sleeve of the tunic and identified the division which the regiment was attached to. This one is a stamped brass that has been painted and has 3 holes for sewing to the tunic. There were similar badges for units in the regular Army and the Fascists Black Shirts Legions. Some are stamped metal and some are embrodiered.

I'm not sure if all regular Army units wore these shields as their tunic usually displayed colored collar tabs to distinguish the different Infantry Divisions. Of course, these were smaller and consisted of a combination of color codes. Not as easy to identify as the info shown on the arm shield.

I promise not to get carried away on Italian uniforms. But I had to show off this shield that goes with the hat.
