I went to my dads grave in Worcester's Italian war cemetary near Cape Town. I was sad to see the condition of the grave site . 03/02/2013 SHAME ON THE ITALIAN GOVERMENT . He gave his life for Italy and now they turned there back him and the rest of his comrades. Hi Nino - I can understand why you were saddened to see the condition of the site. Is the entire cemetery neglected as well?
Hi Nino I presume that you know that the remains of all the Italian POWs buried in Worcester are going to be transferred to the cemetery of Zonderwater very soon.
