General Count Luigi Cadorna, Italian Commander-in-Chief. General Luigi, il Conti di Cadorna, served as Chief of the General Staff from 1914 until the end of 1917. His primary task had been to modernize the Italian Army, but the Italian entry into World War One followed his appointment too quickly. As head of the war effort, he undertook a devastating series of attacks along the same stretch of front, gaining little at much cost. Showing neither imagination in his planning, nor appreciation for the sacrifices of the Italian soldier, Cadorna eventually lost the confidence of the army and the politicians alike. 1915.
