Martin Ryan. Lyr Req: Bandiera Rossa / Avanti Popolo (46) RE: Lyrics to radical Italian anthem 04 Jun 98

"Songs of Struggle and Protest" (Ed. John Mc Donnell), gives a version in English and says:

"3,350 Italian volunteers fought for the Spanish Government (in the Civil War) and 600 were killed in action. The song, Bandiera Rossa, was in fact an Italian anti-fascist song written before the Spanish CIvil War but many volunteers from other countries brought it home with them from this war and it is sung today in many languages and many parts of the world."
