ITALY 3rd Missile Brigade "Aquileia" sleeve patch

Price: 5 - 10 $

(Italian: 3ª Brigata Missili “Aquileia”)
The 3rd Missile Brigade Aquileia was an artillery brigade of the Italian Army active between 1959 and 1991. The brigade was stationed in North-Eastern Italy and armed with missile and artillery systems capable of firing tactical nuclear weapons as part of Italys participation in NATOs nuclear sharing programme. During peacetime the brigade fell under command of the Italian V Army Corps, but during wartime the brigade would have been subordinate to NATOs Allied Land Forces Southern Europe (LANDSOUTH) command in Verona. After the end of the Cold War the brigade was disbanded and most of its weapon systems retired.
