«Carlo was, is and will be one of the best faces of our armed forces and of the Carabinieri . He is the example that serving means being faithful every day to the Country and to the oath, not in words, but in deeds. And he was so until the ultimate sacrifice» .
Thus said the Minister of Defense, Guido Crosetto, remembering Carlo Legrottaglie, the chief brigadier killed on Thursday in Francavilla Fontana during a firefight with two men traveling on board a stolen car.
Today Crosetto attended the funeral of the soldier in Ostuni. Also at the funeral was the President of the Republic Sergio Mattarella.
"Today, to honor Carlo Legrotaglia, there was also our president Sergio Mattarella, whom I thank for his constant closeness, and there was ideally the entire Republic, the entire State . To God, Carlo", concluded the minister in a post on X.
