History

In 1946 the Auto Unit of the War Ministry was formed by expanding the existing Administrative Transport Company. On 1 January 1948 the unit was expanded to Auto Group of the Defense Ministry-Army, which consisted of a command, a car auto unit, a mixed auto unit, and the 13th Light Workshop. On 1 May 1958 the group was renamed X Auto Group. In 1966 the group was expanded to four auto units. [3]

As part of the 1975 army reform the X Auto Group was renamed 10th Maneuver Auto Group on 1 August 1976. On 1 October 1976 the group was renamed 10th Joint Forces Maneuver Auto Group "Salaria". Like all Italian Army transport units the group was named for a historic road near its base: in the 10th group's case for the Roman road Via Salaria. [3]

On 12 November 1976 the President of the Italian Republic Giovanni Leone issued decree 846, which granted the group a new flag. [3] [4]

on 1 January 2004 the group was renamed 10th Transport Battalion "Salaria" and entered the newly formed Joint Forces Maneuver Regiment, which became a joint unit of the Italian Armed Forces, even though the regiment's personnel continues to be drawn from the army's Transport and Material Arm. [3]
