Mufasa,
quite interesting ,historically speaking, is the one from Trieste.
This was the scene of a really major 'stand-off'(confrontation) between the Kiwis(NZer's) & Tito's forces at the end of WW2.
Cheers !
Steve (NZer)

But even here rimini New Zealanders, the Kiwis, have created a special memory. It was the first, with the Greeks, to enter the city across the bow of August (70 dc) and their Shermann bogged is the symbol of the liberation of Rimini ...
