Re: Italian naval records in the US archives?

Hello Felix,

The submarine records can only be found in the Rome Archives. At NARA you can find a few naval-related records in the T821 microfilm series but that is about all. These are mostly records captured during the invasion of Sicily. The Italian naval archives were hidden near Rome and avoided falling in the hands of the Germans. They remained in Italian hands and thus were not microfilmed as the German ones.
