The 12th Alpini Regiment (Шаблон:Lang-it) is an inactive regiment of the Italian Army's mountain infantry speciality, the Alpini, which distinguished itself in combat during World War I and World War II. First formed on 15 February 1936 to command the units of the 7th Alpini Regiment, which remained in Italy and did not participate in the Second Italo-Ethiopian War, the regiment was disbanded on 1 July 1937 upon the 7th Alpini Regiment's return to Italy. Formed again on 8 August 1992 as unit of the Alpine Brigade "Cadore", the regiment was inactivated on 31 January 1997.

History

The regiment was reformed on 8 August 1992 by elevating the existing Alpini Battalion "Pieve di Cadore" to regiment. Between 1 August 1887 and 11 November 1975 the battalion was part of the 7th Alpini Regiment. After the 7th Alpini Regiment was disbanded during the 1975 Italian Army reform the Pieve di Cadore, based in Tai di Cadore, became one of the battalions of the Alpine Brigade "Cadore". As the traditions and flag of the 7th Alpini Regiment were assigned to the "Feltre" battalion, the Pieve di Cadore was granted a new war flag on 12 November 1976 by decree 846 of the President of the Italian Republic Giovanni Leone.[1] The Silver Medal of Military Valour awarded to the 7th Alpini Regiment for the regiment's service in the Greco-Italian war, the Gold Medal of Civil Valour awarded to the 7th Alpini Regiment for its service after the Vajont disaster and the Messina earthquake Medal of Merit awarded to the 7th Alpini Regiment in 1908, were duplicated for the new flag of the Pieve di Cadore.[2][3]

With the downsizing of the Italian Army after the end of the Cold War the 12th Alpini Regiment and its battalion were disbanded on 31 January 1997.[4]
