"Unrest and discontent also characterized Italy. In addition to hunger and unemployment, Italians were unhappy with territory they had gained by fighting on the side of the Allies. They sometimes took out their anger on Italian soldiers returning from the war. Crippled veterans had their crutches kicked out from under them by roughnecks. One soldier in Milan was attacked, stripped of his medals, and tossed bodily into the street. A few soldiers were even murdered. Two officers in Venice drowned when they were stuffed into a sentry box that was then thrown into a canal."
