The 6th CC.NN. Division "Tevere" (Italian: 6ª Divisione CC.NN. "Tevere") was an Italian CC.NN. (Blackshirts militia) division raised on 7 August June 1935 for the Second Italo-Ethiopian War against Ethiopia and disbanded after the war. The division was named for the Tiber river. The division had only limited combat value due to the age (World War I veterans), the physical disabilities (amputated veterans), and the lack of military training (Italians living abroad) of its troops, and the lack of machine guns and pack artillery.[citation needed] Nevertheless, it saw some combat in minor skirmishes on the Somali front, and performed creditably[citation needed] under the command of Generale di Divisione Enrico Boscardi.[1]
