Italian Fascist Youth Marine Arm Shield
Offered here is a very uncommon example of an Italian fascist youth marine arm shield. These shields were worn by the GIL, or Italian youth organization. The GIL was split into categories, each of the kids in their category wore a specific shield indicating their function. The Premarinari were kids who intended to join the Royal Navy once they were old enough and left the GIL. These early Bakelite shields are not easily found, this one being in nice condition. If you collect Hitler Youth, it might make for an interesting display to have some Italian youth marine items next you your HJ marine.
