"Zona della Guardia di Finanza" and "Legione Guardia di Finanza" rispectively. They are territorial departments.

PS Which is the V. which you place always before name?

My mistake! :wink:

I meant Fifth Zone and Fifth Legion of Financial Guard, both located in OZAK.

Thanks for info!

What about ranks?

ok the italian adjective for fifth is "quinto" ("quinta" if female).

As I told, they are territorial districts. Guardia di Finanza is a police force with a territorial structure. IIRC a zone is a regional command and a legion a provincial one.

Guardia di Finanza has exactly same ranks as Carabinieri (apart the lowest rank is "finanziere")
