The 67th Infantry Regiment "Legnano" (Italian: 67° Reggimento Fanteria "Legnano") is an inactive unit of the Italian Army last based in Solbiate Olona. Formed in 1862 and originally named for the city of Palermo the regiment is part of the Italian Army's infantry arm. Since 1939 the regiment is named for the medieval Battle of Legnano.[2]
The regiment was one of ten infantry regiments formed on 1 August 1862. In 1866 the regiment participated in the Third Italian War of Independence. During World War I the regiment fought on the Italian front and the Macedonian front. During World War II the regiment was assigned to the 58th Infantry Division "Legnano", with which it fought in the Greco-Italian War. The command of the regiment and the II Battalion had just arrived Apulia in southern Italy, when the Armistice of Cassibile was announced on 8 September 1943. The regiment immediately clashed with invading German forces. The regiment joined the Italian Co-belligerent Army and fought on the allied side in the Italian campaign. From 28 September 1943 to 27 January 1944 the regiment was assigned to the I Motorized Grouping, which was attached to the American 36th Infantry Division. In December 1943 the regiment distinguished itself in the Battle of Monte Lungo, for which it was awarded Italy's highest military honor the Gold Medal of Military Valor. After the war the regiment was assigned to the Infantry Division "Legnano" until it was disbanded in 1975 and its flag and traditions assigned to a battalion sized unit. Reformed as an armored regiment in 1992 the regiment was disbanded in 1995.[2]
