Giuseppe Daodice when was twelve years old went to a catholic seminary in Bergamo. But the young man did not want to pursue a career in the church and his parents enrolled him at the Nunziatella military academy. Then went to the Military Academy of Modena and became lieutenant of cavalry. He participated in the Italo-Turkish War as Official of active service in Tripoli, in the siege of Ain Zara and in Cyrenaica. He was conscript in 1915 and -by intervening in the battles of the Isonzo- he was wounded in the Seventh Battle of the Isonzo: for this serious wound he was relegated to service distant from the front for some months, but soon wanted to go back to the battle front. Daodice was then promoted to major after the Battle of the solstice and the Battle of Vittorio Veneto in 1918.
