Carabinieri

Organisation 3 stories, 1954 to 1978

Italy's Carabinieri appear in these cases as the officers who arrived, measured and took statements. Cennina, 1954. About 30 minutes after Rosa Lotti Dainelli's encounter, a Carabinieri officer confirmed a hole about 10 cm across and 15 cm deep. At Aviano Air Base in 1977, Italian Carabinieri joined a USAF Security Police patrol that arrived too late. The object had already climbed away. In the Zanfretta case of 1978, Brigadier Antonio Nucchi at Torriglia took 52 statements from people who had seen a light in the sky. The Carabinieri certified a horseshoe-shaped mark at the villa. A telex to the Interior Ministry rated Zanfretta's credibility good.
