World War I
Casacalenda, Molise, Italy
Date: 1910s
Notes: Here is a picture of a relative of the Ferrara family who served in World War I. At that time Italy had a conscript army -- young men had no choice but to report for military duty when the government called them to do so. World War I took place between 1914 to 1918. Over 40 million casualties resulted, half of which were civilian deaths. For more information visit: www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italy_in_world_war_1.
