The remains of an Austro-Hungarian soldier who served in World War I were found in the province of Trento, Italy, near Monte Civerone.
Based on one of the buttons on his uniform, the soldier was identified as one of the so-called emperor hunters of the Austro-Hungarian army. The imperial hunters were mostly infantrymen from the old army who had retreated from the Alpine landscapes, especially in shooting, belonging to the infantry, writes the MTI.
The remains of the ground were found by savages in the forests of Mount Civerone, and they also found the projectile that had hit the soldier at that time.
The body was transported to Castelnuovo and the remains will be deposited in the Austro-Hungarian military cemetery near Civerone. Between June 10 and 29, 1917, a mountain battle took place in the area, during which 25,000 Italians and 9,000 soldiers of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy lost their lives.
Due to the melting of glaciers, the remains of soldiers in times of war have been discovered more and more frequently in Trento in recent years. In September, at an altitude of 3,150 meters on Mount Crozzon di Lares, two mountaineers found the body of a WWI soldier on a glacier.
