80th Regiment "Roma"
military unit
The 80th Regiment "Roma" (Italian: 80° Reggimento "Roma") is an active unit of the Italian Army based in Monte Romano in Lazio. The regiment is named for the city of Rome and was part of the Italian Army's infantry arm until 2004, when it became a training unit and was redesignated as a "multi-arms unit" and designated 80th Volunteer Training Regiment "Roma". In December 2023 the regiment became a training support unit at the Monte Romano training range with the new name 80th Regiment "Roma".
The regiment was one of sixteen infantry regiments formed on 1 November 1884. During World War I the regiment fought on the Italian front. The regiment was disbanded in 1926 and reformed in May 1937. During World War II the regiment was assigned to the 9th Infantry Division "Pasubio", with which it participated in the invasion of Yugoslavia. In July 1941 the Pasubio division was assigned to the Italian Expeditionary Corps in Russia and the regiment fought in Donbas in Ukraine and along the Don river in southern Russia. In December 1942 the division and regiment were destroyed during the Soviet Operation Little Saturn. For its conduct in Ukraine and Russia the regiment was awarded two times Italy's highest military honor the Gold Medal of Military Valor.
This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “80th Regiment "Roma"” as military unit. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as military unit. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 26, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q3599922. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2004, 2023, 1884 and 1926.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
