Mauro need help ctxt

Ok this is really not on topic, but I am having no luck on my own. I posted a photo of my Grandfather who was in the Italian Cavalry. I have a sword like the one in the photo, but would like to locate the helmet and uniform. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
Doug

Your Grandfather looks great. Your lucky to have the image. I wish you the best. Our family has only one image of that age. We are as proud as you.

Great Photo, not many of that vintage survive... He reminds me a lot of my Grandfather too...
