On Jan 17th 1945, Gian Ugo Taggiasco - Sgt of the Italian Alpine Division "Monterosa" - was sent to an advanced outpost in Tuscany's Serchio Valley. In the morning he found out that his position had been surrounded by a 100 man strong US Buffalo Div. patrol.

  • with great sadness I'd like to let you know that Sergente Aiutante Maggiore Gian Ugo Taggiasco passed away last Thursday 27 October 2011. He was still in good health, but a banal fall while hiking led him to this sad epilogue.

    Last spring I was with him in the valley of Serchio for the annual reunion of the Monterosa veterans held in Palleroso and on that occasion he took me to visit the locations of those clashes.

    R.I.P.

    Marco Taggiasco, one of his two sons.
