A 1992 #ww1book, but well done! Intriguing stories by the famous Tyrolean guide Sepp #Innerkofler, a dedication to Viktoria Savs, and detailed maps! What more could you want for a small area like the Tre Cime di Lavaredo/Drei Zinnen?

Last night, during a break from covering the #Paralympics in Tesero, I had the honor of meeting Czech 🇨🇿 #biathlon champion Carina #Edlingerov. She let me hold her Gold Medal. 🥹🏅
What wonderful athletes.❤️😍💖
Thank you!
A very unique #WW1 Alpine hat: the light gray badge with the number 7, indicating the regiment, is embroidered on a black background. This indicates that the Alpine soldier was in charge of commissary duties at the front. Very rare #ww1items
A very sad story. 😞
The departure,
the march to the front,
the attack...
the end.
Original illustrations taken from a period Austro-Hungarian book.

image of a patrol of the Deutsche AlpenKorps #ww1DAK on reconnaissance on the #ww1front ... But I think the mountains in the background are somewhat imaginary for security reasons.
