Per distruggere i reticolati e le trincee, una volta abbandonati i tubi di gelatina e le pinze tagliafili, nell'Esercito Italiano fu riesumata nel 1915 la bombarda, un arma a canna liscia in uso dal XV al XVIII secolo che con il tiro curvo di una bomba potente distruggeva trincee e reticolati nascosti alla vista, aprendo le brecce dove poteva passare la fanteria. Il corpo dei bombardieri, al pari di quello degli artiglieri propriamente detti, dei bersaglieri, degli alpini e dei fanti, arrivò a contare 5.600 ufficiali e 113.000 soldati. Questa è la storia delle loro imprese e delle loro armi. [Abstract translated by Google Translate: This is the abstract in English… In order to destroy barbed wires and trenches, once the blasting gelatin and wire cutters had been abandoned, the bombard was resurrected in the Italian Army in 1915. This was a weapon in use from the 15th to the 18th century which with the curved shot of a powerful bomb destroyed trenches and fences hidden from view, opening breaches where the infantry could pass. The bomber corps, like that of the artillerymen proper, the Bersaglieri, the Alpini and the infantrymen, numbered 5,600 officers and 113,000 soldiers. This is the story of their exploits and their weapons.]
