In South-East we see the glorious Italian 13th Regiment of Foot “Pinerolo”, which freed Struga and West Albanian Macedonia. The13th Regiment was the unique Italian one of the Balkans which has been decorated with Gold Medal Military Valour to Flag (writing out on it: “Ocrida, Bilishti, 8-18 aprile 1941”).
