ITALY: WW2 Commemorative medal for the 
based in Eritrea, MVSN - Militia participants 
in the "Battle for Grain". 
The "Battle for Grain" was a propaganda term 
for the policy that was implemented, in 1927, 
by the fascist regime in order to transform 
Italy into being a nearly self-sufficient country 
rather than greatly relying upon foreign 
imports, particularly of grain. 
Through this policy the regime encouraged 
and financially supported the farmers (both 
in Italy and in the African Italian Colonies) 
who were producing crops to buy machinery 
and fertilizer.
With the head of Mussolini and the motto: 
"Young Prince".
 The medal was established in 1937.
Signed L&C (Lorioli and Casteli, Milano).
A very rare medal.
