Concluding the visit, His Royal Highness expressed his personal appreciation for the relevant role
played by CoESPU, as training center and doctrinal hub strengthened by a decade-solid experience,
that, in cooperation with the European Gendarmerie Force and the NATO Stability Policing Center
of Excellence, aims to reinforce the current Stability Policing concept, providing specific courses
and also through the participation in the development of innovative techniques, tactics and
procedures in order to support the UN effort in Peace Support Operations.
Eventually, the Prince of Wales ended his day in the Province of Vicenza by visiting the well-
known military “Path of the 52 Tunnels”, in the nearby Pasubio mountain, an astonishing
masterpiece of military engineering built by the Italian Army Engineer Corps during the First World
War, when tens of thousands of British soldiers fought alongside the Italians during the so called
“forgotten front”.
A sacred site that remind us to the strong effort supported by Italian and British Army during WWI
in defending the unbreakable values of peace and freedom, as well as a great warning from history
for a better world.
