Thanks for the information, I wonder who the man in the coffin is, surrounded by the honour guard in the white uniforms. I was thinking Gentile, but he died in mid 1944. I would like to ry and find out
Thanks again

interesting photos thanks for sharing! in the photo #4 is clearly visible
the italian Royal Marine honour guard; in my opinion is the funeral of
Costanzo Ciano, (August 30, 1876 - June 26, 1939) naval commander
and politician, the city of funeral is Livorno in Tuscany; he was the father
of Galeazzo Ciano.
