During the summer of 1916 and especially at the time of the battle of Ortigara (10-June 25, 1917) the Italian troops attacked Austrian positions repeatedly without achieving any success.
Notorious is the story of mina (made by the Italians under the spur of the bezel from autumn 1916) who broke inopportunely, perhaps due to lightning, the June 8, 1917 at 17.30, (with two days earlier than intended), causing the explosion of galleries. 120 Italian soldiers lost their lives: to these must be added over forty officers of the Brigade Catania which at that time was being watched from the Austrian positions in anticipation of the upcoming battle of Ortigara.
