, 1/320 f/7.1, ISO 100, hand held. Monte Piana, Italy.

La lotta per la "Kuppe K" Fin dai tempi dell'azione di avvolgimento, gli austriaci avevano occupato un posto sull'angolo nord-est del Fosso Alpino dal quale bersagliare le Forcellette e lo avevano battezzato Kuppe K ("Punto K"). Temendo un'avanzata italiana sul pianoro settentrionale, gli austriaci compirono un massiccio attacco contro gli italiani, da estendersi anche alla Forcella dei Castrati al fine di distruggere completamente l'impianto offensivo italiano. L'attacco doveva essere condotto sfruttando il fattore sorpresa, per cui viene programmato senza supporto dell'artiglieria e con il favore delle tenebre. Le truppe penetrarono nelle trincee italiane che erano vuote, le distrussero e ritornarono indisturbate nelle posizioni di partenza. Ai primi di agosto il comando austriaco ritiene però indispensabile il possesso della Forcella dei Castrati e della Kuppe K, viene quindi ordinato un nuovo attacco che ha successo. Si susseguono attacchi e contrattacchi, il 23 agosto un reparto della Brigata Umbria conquista la Kuppe K, ma due giorni dopo si registra un nuovo tentativo austriaco si conclude con la morte di 47 attaccanti su 51. La riconquista avviene ad opera di un contingente di altri 60 Kaiserschützen ("bersaglieri regionali") erano un corpo militare a reclutamento di leva appartenente alla k.k. Landwehr, l'esercito nazionale austriaco. I rinforzi austriaci non tardarono e permisero di trincerarsi in modo migliore, ma gli italiani non stettero a guardare, scavarono una galleria tra le vicine trincee e la Kuppe K, e di sorpresa, di notte, dopo un pesante bombardamento, un plotone italiano di Arditi riuscì a riprendere la posizione catturando l'intero presidio nemico. Nel primo commento troverete altre tre mie immagini che rappresentano la zona contesa con i numeri di riferimento che ho assegnato alle cartine di Monte Piana che ho scaricato per fare capire come era dislocata la zona del conflitto, la fotografia di repertorio con i baraccamenti la potete posizionare nel costone al centro dell'immagine principale in b.n.

Gorgeous photo and super the comment. In the first war, although as usual we did not have much equipment, but beyond the victory we held on to the Austrians with daring and honor.
If you also do the 2nd I am more prepared, and here I can tell the usual acts of heroism of The Italian as in El Alamein. Thank you!! Ale

Ale I am honored by your presence and your intervention, many heroic acts were done and those boys fought with great honor, seen with today's eyes it was a carnage that brought only mourning.
For the 2nd I don't think I'm prepared with the help of images, who knows if one day ...
Thane to you :-) a greeting Loris

Loris, you're magnificent. A whole series of photos and documents of great value, almost like hearing the stories of those who have lived the situations that you tell and illustrate with photos.
Compliments !

I thank you Paolo, the magnificent are all of you who passionately follow my stubbornness in continuing the story of the battles of Monte Piana, I am satisfied with the follow-up obtained and considering that for the centenary I was in Bassano del Grappa and Monte Grappa who knows that it does not make a story even for those places :-)
