CLARIFICATIONS: "Does the video scold the Arditi's ties with fascism and act as if the ties with communism, socialism, and anarchism are honorable? Does it praise communism and consider communists good guys? No, this is an apolitical martial arts channel, there is no political praise or bias in the video. Those interested can learn more about the various political currents in the places that deal with the topic in question. There is a section regarding communists, anarchists, and socialists because that was who the Arditi del Popolo were and what they did. I wanted to underline an opposite view to the incorrect and widespread viewpoint of "Arditi = Fascists". It just happened that in that period most of the anti-fascists were of those political currents, if there had been others, they would still have been in the video. The participation of some in the Spanish Civil War was briefly mentioned because various symbols of the Arditi were also imported into Spain, such as the skull with the dagger between its teeth, so it was certainly worthy of mention, to clarify for anyone who might come across it. Whether they were good guys or bad guys is something that must be seen individually and is not related to their politics.
Mio nonno era negli arditi, ho a casa il suo pugnale, un vecchio pezzo di ferro arrugginito con il manico troppo piccolo, su cui sono incise le parole “ Piave Fert”. Si stenta a credere che sia quella l’arma micidiale tanto temuta dal nemico, ma è così. Era l’uomo che la impugnava a fare la differenza.
There is a picture series, like 3 and it shows a soldier rolling onto a road and placing a mine under an Allied tank. The soldier is smiling and the tank is moving fast. As a kid my grandpa told me- you see that fella, he is Special Forces from Italy, they were the nastiest devils of the war, and its good they joined the Allies. I knew then at 5, what i was destined to do.
While there are no compendiums that I know of for the Arditi, one of the several manuals they trained with and the inspiration behind their name, is the Fior di Battaglia (Flower of Battle) also featured among the dagger & grappling images in this video. The name Arditi comes from a quote in the Flower. The manual states that a man-at-arms must possess 4 virtues. Strength, Discernment, Speed, and Courage. The word and accompanying quote for Courage are "Ardimento - Più de mi Lione non porta core ardito, pero di battaglia faço a zaschaduno invito." It's written in very old Friuli (an old Italian dialect, so modern Italians reading this may be slightly confused). It roughly translates to "More than I, the Lion, no one bears a more ardent heart, and battle, to everyone, I invite thee." It's basically the medieval Italian version of "Come at me, bro." The Flower of Battle contains several techniques still practiced by modern people, as one of many systems under the umbrella term of Historical European Martial Arts, or HEMA for short.
As a former Army Infantry soldier, I have much respect for the elites among us, but what a waste of humanity and resources. 100 years later, we still haven’t learned anything. The powerful send us minions to die. For what?
Do you know what type of bad azz you have to be, to charge enemy machine guns armed primarily with daggers and hand grenades? These men were beasts, brave beyond our comprehension.
Yes, unfortunately I see that many devalue the courage and individual training of these troops due to the discreet results obtained and the significant ones that arrived late. A war is not based only on soldiers but on many other factors, in which Italy was lacking. I'm glad someone is still able to understand what these soldiers had to go through, thank you for your comment!
the first special forces in history were the Red Devils of the Sassari Brigade (the 151st and 152nd regiments) stationed in Sardinia in 1915. They were the first to experiment with bladed weapon assaults using the famous Sardinian knife "sa resolza". After these episodes which earned the Sassari Brigade the award of two gold medals for military valour, the military command formed the battalion of the arditi on a voluntary basis
My grandfather was an Arditi, he fought the Spanish Civil War and thought WW2. It even got decorated for valor by General Franco himself! He didn't like to talk about war that much, but on the few evenings were he would get more wine than he could handle we (kids) sit around him to listen to some hairy story. Miss him. RIP grampa Luciano❤
Grazie from Italy to remember those heroes! Unfortunately Italians of today are not patriots as it used to be, that’s why I love Thai patriotism! My grandfather was in the Alpini corps! He escaped from concentration camps in Piemonte🔝🦾 I love your channel I follow since long time ago🇮🇹❤🇹🇭🙏🔝👏
The first world SF. First SF to be parachuted into enemy line and tgeir moto, the Daring Ines, the British SAS copied, who dares wins! Also, the SAS stem copied the Arditis. Sadly, because of WW2, they were made to close tge regiment , but under cover from the government I think kept on training.
Wow, I would have never thought that the Arditi would study Judo and JJJ (Japanese Jiu-Jitsu). I've always wondered what kind of training they had, and this video has finally satisfied many of my curiosities! Many thanks from Rome, Sir, for this gem!
I really appreciate the positive reception of the new content. I will continue to cover new martial arts and combat systems, so that everyone can benefit from it, both in terms of knowledge and repertoire that they can implement in their training.
@@abrahamlincoln6201 I don't own the manuals, they are extremely rare. I trained with an expert in Italian military combat. Some pictures you saw (like the throw paired with the web of hand strike) come from another old book on Italian jujitsu by Carlo Oletti. I will surely made another video on this form of jujitsu and show the other techniques.
They needed to quickly assault the positions and that often included climbing mounts, so the armour and shields of that time would have slowed them down significantly as they were too heavy. As explained in the video, they did some experiments with armor and shields with the Death Companies, but they didn't work. Also, I'm not sure they got the resources to provide an armor to all the Arditi, considering that there was even a shortage of their uniform.
Probably they were the closest successors to the Western Roman Palatina Guards and Comitatenses, well armed and well trained. And the knife fights from Dune movies were also probably influence by Arditi knife fencing other than Eskrima, Wing Chun and Krav Maga.
My great-grandfather was an Austro-Hungarian soldier in ww1, he was a Croat from Zadar, member of "22. Dalmatinisches Infanterie Regimente" in 5th-10th battles of Isonzo, he must have fought fought against arditi, because we still have 2 of those badges mentioned in the video along with his medals and other ww1 memorabilia, i never met him, he died in 1971. i was born in 1979. He was highly decorated. It didnt help, Austro-Hungary lost the war.
"wich however was easily penetrated" ofcourse, cause today fake historian pretending that the Farina armour was made against bullets, it wasn't. It was suited to the Arditi to protect them from schrapnels, it's only job was to allow the soldier to arrive in the enemy trenches and not being protect from machineguns etc.
As and italian I found this video complete, neutral and well narrated! Just what the Arditi story needed! Bravo!!👍 edit: I think the cry: "A Noi" could be also translated into: "Now it's our turn!".
11:09 Waitwaitwait... anarchists, fighting under a... chief??? It is as if they had noticed that they ideologies could do nothing over reality, especially when it comes to warfare.😂
Some define anarchism as being against unjust hierarchy. Also there was a whole civil war in spain where anarchists were very numerous and militarised - it wasn't that rare.
In southern Europe anarchists are just people skeptical of authorities It’s not as ideologically rigid as the Russian anarchists who were complete nihilists Renzo Novatore was an Italian anarchist that argued only nobility and aristocracy had a duty to be anarchists by forgoing their unearned inheritance

I invented a special troop type for a scifi story i am writing. I call them Dartidi. My inspiration for the name was nothing close to an actual historical warrior, i misunderstood lyrics to a song years ago, thought it said dartidi, wondered what it was, no one to ask, so i made it up on the spot. I learned about the Arditi from Battlefield 1, long after i came up Dartidi. I found it interesting. My Dartidi are also specialized mountain troops.
Nope, it's extremely rare, even in Italy there are only few libraries with a copy. I couldn't use the actual pictures because I'm not sure about their copyright status, but the pictures of the first technique come from another manual on that form of Italian Jujitsu by Carlo Oletti. I'll make a video on Italian Jujitsu and feature more techniques and applications.
@@antoniotorcoli5740 Actually it has never been confirmed, it might be true for some techniques on the manual, but there are others not found in Fiore's style. The Guard Position for example is one of those. It's also worth noticing that there were various instructors, but only one style survived beside that of Gino Gobbi, and it has some differences. From what I've seen though, Italian Jujitsu and other Italian military combat systems that came after have similarities to Fiore's manual, but Japanese Jujitsu already had techniques identical to Fiore's Abrazare when it came to Italy, so it's not clear if it is just a coincidence or if there was an actual influence in the selection of the techniques. I'll look deeper into the topic and made a video about it. Anyway, that's a good advice, check out Fiore's Manual!
@@jonnytwocombs198 I checked out the book, very interesting, it is a translation of Bassegio's book, but be aware that the Arditi Volunteers of Basseggio are other precursors of the Arditi of the Assault Units, and had nothing to do with the latter regarding their structure, training, strategy, etc.
As an ex member of the Btg Alp. Susa Taurinese AMF NATO. I can tell you that the Arditi regiment still exists and is still full operational special forces 9 regiment Col Moschin. They participated in various wars and conflicts. Today it's a modern Alpini infanteries assult regiment one of Italy elite.
If these troops, which also were pioneers of modern special forces, had been any other European, there would have been volumes written on them. Imahine if they were English.

Lol so they also pioneered flashbangs without the flash to then leap and slash/stab their enemies with the dagger...dang that is some Italian shit if i ever heard it.
Da bambino io spesso chiedevo a mio nonno di raccondarmi cosa ha fatto in guerra. Ma lui mi diceva solo che la guerra era brutta. È poi mi cantava una canzone che purtroppo mi ricordo solo queste poche parole. Monte nero e monte rosso traditori della patria mia sono venuto qui a liberarti. Forse c'è qualcuno che la conosce?
Whaaat? Arditi masters of hand-to-hand combat? Hahahaha. You totally missed the true masters: Brigata Sassari, the Red Devils. With all kinds of sardinian knives that you can find in all WWI museums or, of course, in Sardinia. They represented the first line of fight and arrived where Arditi were unable to.

Never disband all of your spec forces. Never, EVER do that.
A good overall view of the Arditi a formation which has long been overlooked, interesting and balanced !
Good idea for a unit but they would need good body armour and shields to survive the art of getting close.
They needed to quickly assault the positions and that often included climbing mounts, so the armour and shields of that time would have slowed them down significantly as they were too heavy.
As explained in the video, they did some experiments with armor and shields with the Death Companies, but they didn't work.

Thank you for this dive into italian knife fighting martial arts.
Blocking knife/dagger attacks is a tricky one i would not really advice to training that form. It maybe a different philosophy under which i learned, but generally from that i summaraized that rather leading/redirecting the opponents strike onto himself or towards a position noone is in the way of the strike reduces the by chance hits or should the object be accidently released in full swing from the opponents hand and therefor still hitting the mark us the original target.
If you had to block though and see that as last chance, a double block with both hands could be made an argument for, though that reduces the chance for a counter attack or rather side stepping avoiding the swing altogether and only reentering range should an oppening become clear.
If you do not have a weapon yourself that you are accustomed to or any selfdefense training and even if you do, like with all fights the best defense is not a good offense, as we are not in american football, but a good 100 meter sprint time. As in the infamous words from Battleship "fight the enemy where they aren't."
It is sad to see that partiotism seems to be missused by fascist tendecies even nowadays to the extant that those in its grasp don't even realise and claim not to be.
