Italian army


 

The Italian Army has recently become a professional all-volunteer force of some 112,000 active duty personnel, around 70% male, 30% female. A recent law promotes membership of the Italian Army guaranteing volunteers post-Army careers in the Carabinieri Corps, Italian State Police, Italian Finance Guard and Italian State Forestry Corps, amongst other state bodies. The headquarter of the Army General Staff is in Rome opposite to the Presidential Palace.
