A special legion stationed at Sabaudia and comprising volunteers from lands outside of Italy includes a number of Jewish officers. Major Lionello Attias, a Tunis Jew, commands a battalion in this legion and is second in command of the legion. Among the volunteers is a young rabbi, Catarinas Salomne.
