Major De Dionigi is the new Commander of the ‘Grappa’ squadron. The event took place in the presence of Colonel Enrico Garettini, Commander of the 51st Wing, and was attended by numerous guests and former members of the 132nd ‘Buscaglia’ Group. Major Grassi, after a year of service as Commander of the 132nd Group, will assume the role of Commander of the 3rd Normal Course at the Air Force Academy. During his speech, Major Grassi praised the work of the members of the 132nd Group, who were involved in photographic reconnaissance operations outside national borders (‘Unified Protector’ for the Libyan crisis and Task Group Black Cats in Afghanistan) and in national contexts (the 2009 Abruzzo earthquake). The event concluded with the passing of the ‘Capo’ patch, an symbolic gesture of continuity in the command of the 132nd Group.
