The San Giorgio class has enriched the Italian navy for three decades. Replacements are not to be procured until the 1930s.

Two ships - the San Giorgio and the San Marco - were put into service with the Marina Militare in 1988/89. A third ship with a slightly modified design named San Giusto followed in 1994.

You read the headline "4-day week in the navy!" This causes confusion. Our minister, Boris Pistorius, our inspector general, General Carsten Breuer, and our naval inspector, Vice Admiral Jan Christian Kaack, mention it again and again: "Just do it!"

The 3rd Minesweeping Squadron has "just done it" in the current pilot project of the Operational Flotilla 1. Access marineforum digital+ Are you already a registered user?
