[edit] Cadorna Street, Box Hill South, Melbourne

Does anybody know if there's any connection between Luigi Cadorna and Cadorna Street in Box Hill South, Victoria? I posted this question at Talk:Box Hill South, Victoria in May, but have had no response so far. JackofOz 13:27, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Harsh remarks on Cadorna conduit and competence

An anonymous user, User:172.163.202.218, added some harsh remarks on the competence of Cadorna, his treatment of the troops and his responsibilities for the defeat at Caporetto. In general, these remarks correspond to what I know of Cadorna, but I'm not a scholar and I have just a basic knowledge of the World War I on the Italian front. I think that this article should be reviewed and that it is necessary to back it with the appropriate scientific sources. GhePeU 10:37, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Judging strategic competence is not a scientific pursuit, the harsh criticism of Cadorna are in line with the general consensus among war historians. --NEMT 02:24, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

I've rewritten the article with sources. Mackensen (talk) 19:01, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Gorizia

The statement that "Cadorna would ultimately fight eleven battles on the Isonzo between 1915 and 1917 without attaining Gorizia" is false. Gorizia fell to the Italians on August 8, 1916, during the Sixth Battle of the Isonzo. L'omo del batocio 08:53, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
