The 151st Regiment of the Sassari Brigade was born in Sinnai. In the 1980s, the Municipality dedicated a square in the Sant'Isidoro district to it, from where the soldiers of the Brigade departed in 1915. Originally composed only of Sardinians, the unit distinguished itself in the First World War for its courage and skill in close combat , so much so that the Austrians called it "devils" (hence the motto and the name "Dimonios"). ).
Every year, the Municipality of Sinnai celebrates the anniversary of the regiment's founding (the 111th anniversary took place in March 2026) with official ceremonies, honor guards, and the participation of the Sassari Brigade Band. Today, the regiment's operational headquarters is located at the Monfenera Barracks in Cagliari.
