Vittorio Veneto
The Italian victory at the Battle of Vittorio Veneto led to the town lending its name as a military honor. Thus, in the 1930s, a battleship was named Vittorio Veneto. In the 1960s, a flight deck cruiser, the flagship of the Italian Navy, was given the same name. In 1968, a military medal called the "Order of Vittorio Veneto" ("Ordine di Vittorio Veneto") was awarded to Italian veterans who had participated honorably for at least six months during the First World War.
