Commander Giacomini receives the Italian Sailors card

The commander of the local police, Andrea Giacomini, will receive, for exceptional merits, the membership card of the National Sailors Association of Italy. The delivery will take place on the morning of next Sunday on the occasion of Navy Day. Silvano Molducci, veteran and past president of the Ravenna section of the Association, explains: “This is intended to be recognition for the timely and courageous intervention in defense of a vessel captain serving at the time at our Captaincy against whom, in Piazza del People, a woman armed with a knife had lashed out, it seemed like the best and proper way to express the gratitude of us, the ‘sea wolves’ of many years ago, for an act that prevented very serious consequences for the captain of the vessel Diego Tomat. “. The episode happened on May 31, 2019. That morning, rehearsals for the June 2 celebrations were underway in the square. At a certain point a woman approached the Captain’s office and began slashing him. Commander Giacomini, who was near her, managed to block her from behind and disarmed her. The card delivery ceremony will be held at the Marinai d’Italia club in Marina di Ravenna where the retired soldiers of the Ravenna section of the Anmi, of which Marco Regine is president, will meet (starting at 9.30) for the celebration of the Marina.
