Babini Group questions
Babini Group questions
Does anyone have sources on the Babini Group (Brigata Corazzata Speciale) for its origin, OOB and operational history? Christie http://cgsc.cdmhost.com/cdm/ref/collect ... ll2/id/597 has an oob but it seems wrong. Thanks
Re: Babini Group questions

Re: Babini Group questions

I've been trudging through a machine translation of this but can't find any bibliographic details like the date, OCLC or ISBN, does anyone know if they exist? Thanks.

Re: Babini Group questions
Here is a better copy of the article (with pics, etc.). Looking at the original, I am wondering if this is a USSME publication. I wasn't able to find any cite info.

Thanks very much, I haven't found anything better, sadly.
Re: Babini Group questions
I have posted an article, Brigata Corazzata Speciale: An Organizational History on Comando Supremo.

Please take a look. I welcome comments. If you believe you found an error/correction, please offer it. I ask that a cite be provided to the source material so I can evaluate it.

Very interesting, I was particularly impressed by the sources, not being an Italian-speaker. I've added it as an external link here

Good to see a well-researched article on Comando Supremo.
The enemy had superiority in numbers, his tanks were more heavily armoured, they had larger calibre guns with nearly twice the effective range of ours, and their telescopes were superior. 5 RTR 19/11/41

Re: Babini Group questions
Thank you for the positive comments. I have/will be tweaking it over time.
I am currently working through the Italian armored battalion organizations.

Great work Jeff. Keep it up.
Re: Babini Group questions
Thanks!
I have updated the article with a few new bits and corrected some small errors. Working through the carri L/f situation. I think I have a plausible answer. The comments indicate what was changed.
