JULY 31, 1899
On this day in 1899 Great-Grandfather Raffaele earned this large, impressive certificate from the Italian Army. I heard many colorful stories about Raffaele but it seems everyone forgot to mention this accomplishment.
Turns out the immigrant shoemaker was also a tiratore scelto, a sharpshooter.
