ITALY already has a monument to the mutes who worked with

the Alpine troops in the First World War.

Now, if Minister of Defence Taviuni grants the request of a 72-year old ex-servicemun, Italy will also have the world's first mule pensioner.

The ex-soldier, Giuseppe Guattarial, of Olmeneta, Cremona, feels that his 43-year-old mule Ginetta deserves a pension for her bravery in action against the Austrians during the 1915-1918 war. In his letter to the Minister, Guattarini writes: "Under heavy enemy bombardment, Ginetta carried hot rations up to our brave boys lighting on the Playe front. Often in great danger from enemy shells and rifle fre, she never faltered in her work."

over he had He explained that by the time the war was developed a great affection for his mule and took her with him when he was demobilised.

"All these years she has pulled my cart to help me in my work as a parcel carrier. Now she is old and deserves a rest.

"But I am a poer man and fodder costs money. Surely, Mr Minister, your department could grant her a pension that would enable her to spend her last years in the peace and security she su rightly merlis."
