Product Information
Specification
Italy: WW2 Commemorative medal for the men of 
the 9th Italian Army (Italian and Albanian Units) 
during the Campaign against Greece &Yugoslavia. 
Quality Italian version in bronze, signed by Publio 
Morbiducci. 
Encircled by the Savoian Knots written in both 
Albanian and Italian: 
"MIK ME KRYE ME BESE E BURRNI" and "AMICO 
FINO AL SACRIFICIO CON FEDE E CORAGGIO" 
("Friends to the Sacrifice with Faith & Courage").
Italy invaded Greece on 28 October 1940 from the 
Italian occupied Albania. 
By Apr. 1941 the Hellenic Army had repelled the 
attack and had pushed the Italians deep inside 
the Albanian territory. 
The Italian 9th Army participated in the unsucces-
sful Italian "Spring Offensive" in March 1941. 
Trying to prevent the imminent Italian defeat, 
Germany attacked Greece and Yugoslavia, from
Bulgaria, on 6 Apr. 1941 & forced the continental 
Greek Forces to capitulate 3 weeks later. 
The 9th Army was the main Italian Unit that 
entered Greece, following the German invasion 
which forced the Hellenic Army to fall back from 
Albania in order to avoid its encirclement by the 
advancing German forces.
