The good soldier

To me it's easier to write about Italians' bad habits than write about virtues (it's a pretty snob behaviour...). In order not to seem a too crabby person I'd like to point out a good Italian aspect : Italian soldiers are specially loved by the inhabitants of places they visit in their missions. As far as it seems Italian soldiers bring people something more than concrete aid, it's not just Italian media propaganda, it's a worldwide known fact (here's an evidence : Washington Post article)
Perhaps the reasons of generous attitude are the sociable nature or the education, anyway I'm proud of that.
