The 2 block 2015 is named in memory of Sergeant Giuseppe Carli, decorated with Gold Medal for Military Valor for the heroism demonstrated on Mount Mrzli the 1 June 1915, during the First World War.
During the ceremony, Captain Michele Verardi, commander of the 2ª Training Company, will receive from the hands of the commander of the Volunteer Training Center of Capua, Brigadier General Gabriele Toscani De Col, the Bronze Medal for the Value of the Army as employed in a operation to guarantee the safety of a convoy in the area of Bala Murghab (Afghanistan).
