Overview:

After war was declared on 10 June 1940, the first exchange of fire between the Alpini and the Chasseurs Alpins on the Queyras Valley took place on 15 June. Colonel Fadella’s troops were instructed to carry out military operations along the border in the direction of Abriès, 8 km to the west. Following a series of small skirmishes with the Sections d’Eclaireurs à Ski (S.E.S.), the 3° Alpini Regiment approached Abriès where Lt. Col. Martin’s Diables Bleus (87° B.C.A.) had been ordered to hold the village for 48 hours. . .if possible.
