In WW1 some Carabinieri troops did use the standard Adrian helmet, usually with nice ornaments on the front. During WW2 the Carabinieri had issued their own helmets, M33's, painted black with a silver symbol in front for the ones operating in Italy and standard green-gray with black symbol for the ones operating on the battlefield. It was uncommon to find some with bicorns during WW2, especially on the frontlines.

About the Carabinieri, a very good amount of them stayed loyal to the Italian crown and were most happy to arrest Mussolini when the orders were given out. I'm sure it had to do with how he was handling the war effort for Italy, but of course, there are other reasons. Mad respect to them from a Greek.

The video made me interested in what the Carabinieri do nowadays. It was interesting to read how many Afghans the Italians were able to evacuate from Kabul earlier this year due to their somewhat unique emphasis on crowd control training which other countries' special forces lack. That dual combination of police and military roles packs quite a punch.

If I remember correctly Carabinieri is the Italian armed force deployed in most country in the world (e.g KFOR has a good amount of Carabinieri in it) mainly for peacekeeping and police service. Carabinieri besides all jokes we make in Italy are a really appreciated, efficient and unique gendarmerie force, military trained and focused more on de-escalating potential dangerous situations than then use of violence. And one of the most peculiar thing about Carabinieri is their ubiquity on the territory. Every small town, small city, border has its own Carabinieri's Station (with maybe 2 or 5 people inside) and a lot of people in small towns knows personally the chief of the station and maybe they even drink with him on saturday nights. This tend to build up a general good relationship between Carabinieri and the people that you can rarely see in other Police Forces.

A small clarification, the name for the carabinieri guarding the king was "carabinieri: guardie del re" the kings guard basically, to enter you had to be 1,90 meters tall, and they later came to be known as Corazzieri, or as they say in french Curraissers, as of today they still have their role, but instead of guarding the king, the guard the president of the republic. ;) @Simple History

I was in the USMC (79-83) assigned to Landing Support Battalion also know as "Red Patches" or "Shore Party." What made us different from every other Marine was, we wore a 1x1 inch Red Patch on our covers and a 1x3 inch Red Patch on the side of our camie trousers, just above the knee. At Certain times you really don't wanna stand out...

Fun facts Italy does not have one police force but several : local police for small-medium towns dealing w everyday crime; State Police who is present in big cities; Carabinieri who don t have such distinction and Forestali, these deal w preservation of nature and mountain ranges. Funny enough the latest two security branches have both attempted separated coups in the 60s
