Two Slowakische technische Baubrigade unknow v

In the small cemetery of Novafeltria (in 1944 it was called Marcatino Marecchia) there have always been the graves of 2 unknown Czechoslovak soldiers, who fell in a bombardment of the town on 14 July 1944. Mercatino Marecchia was in charge of the "Slowakische technische Baubrigade" so they should be of this department. I would really like to get back to them...


(Na malom cintoríne Novafeltria (43°53'48.67"N 12°17'12.28"E) (v roku 1944 sa nazýval Marcatino Marecchia) sa nachádzajú hroby 2 neznámych československých vojakov, ktorí padli pri bombardovaní mesta 14. júla 1944. Mercatino Marecchia mal na starosti „Slowakische technische Baubrigade“ tak by mali byť z tohto útvaru. Veľmi rád by som sa k nim vrátil...)

„Slowakische technische Baubrigade“ - Technical Brigade, renamed on July 1, 1944 to 2nd Technical Division.
From June 4, 1944, the brigade moved for 16 days to the San Marino border in the Verghereto (43°47'33.59"N 12°00'13.06"E) - Pennabilli (43°49'04.69"N 12°15'59.33"E) area. At the end of July 1944, the division was advanced to the city of Ferrara. In September, the division worked in the Rovigo (45°04'19.48"N 11°47'25.59"E) area, at the end of October in the Ostiglia (45°04'03.30"N 11°08'08.71"E) - Borgoforte (45°02'58.91"N 10°44'58.67"E) area. After a month, she was transferred to the Pavia area. (I hope I specified the geolocations well )

Only Mercatino Marecchia - Verghereto - Pennabilli area- page 32


No names of the fallen are mentioned in the book. The book is mainly devoted to the guerrilla resistance of the division's adjuncts. Try to contact the Embassy of the Slovak Republic in Rome with a request to find out the names of members of the division who are buried in Mercatino Marecchia, today Novafeltria. Attach a photo of the tombstone and everything you know.

thanks
