Douhet beyond Douhet: myth and man

14/01/14

On Thursday 16 January, at 17.00 at the House of the Aviator of Rome, there will be a conference entitled "Douhet over Douhet: myth and man".

The event, organized by the "Giulio Douhet" Center for Aeronautical Military Studies (CESMA) of the Arma Aeronautica Association, aims to deepen the knowledge of the famous air hero, as a soldier with a brilliant career but also a prolific writer, artist , inventor, politician and even farmer. On this will be concentrated the intervention of Gregory Alegi, while General Leandro De Vincenti will drop Douhet's theoretical intuition in the operational reality of the 21 century.

The meeting is part of a series of conferences entitled "Conversations on the theory of war, on strategy and on military history", by General Isp. Basilio Di Martino and Lieutenant Colonel Alessandro Cornacchini, aimed at allowing all aviation and history enthusiasts to confront each other on the topics of war theory, strategy and military history.
