RStGb) London, 11 p.m., Czech, brought the curriculum vitae Marshal Badoglios about in the following representation: As a born Piedmontese Badoglia made a fast career due to his military skills, for example in the world war he was the youngest Italian general. After World War II he was a messenger in Brazil for some time and reorganized from l926, in which year he was appointed marshal, the Italian forces. Soon after the outbreak of the Abyssinia conflict, the command was transferred to him; due reckless action, using state-of-the-art weapons and poison gas, he knew how to resolve the war for Italy. His merits were rewarded by the award of the title of Duke of Addis Ababa. Soon afterwards, after his return to Italy, he was relieved of his duties and placed in the resting place. Badoglio was a personal friend of the Italian king and as such one of his most reliable followers.He entered the fascist party only in 1936. In the campaign against Greece, he was once again appointed commander-in-chief of the Italian army, but resigned six days after his arrival in Albania to his post in recognition of the hopeless situation at the damas-ligen Kriegsschauplatz.
