	Decima Flottiglia MAS - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Decima Flottiglia MAS (Decima Flottiglia Mezzi d'Assalto, also known as La Decima or Xª MAS) (Italian for "10th Assault Vehicle Flotilla") was an Italian commando frogman unit created during the Fascist government.
		In 1943, when Italy, after ousting Benito Mussolini, switched alliances to the Allies, those Xª MAS men who were in the German-occupied north of Italy defected to the Italian Social Republic (the puppet state set up by Nazi Germany in northern Italy) and became an anti-partisan force operating on land.
		In 1938 the 1ª Flottiglia Mezzi d'Assalto ("First Flotilla of Assault Vehicles") was formed as a result of the research and development efforts of two men, Major Teseo Tesei and Major Elios Toschi of the Regia Marina.

		The first attack of the Decima Flottiglia MAS under Ernesto Forza was on elements of the Royal Navy at Alexandria on 19th December 1941.

	Decima Flottiglia MAS - Wikipedia
		D'Annunzio, che aveva partecipato al "battesimo del fuoco" dei MAS durante la Beffa di Buccari, ebbe sempre una particolare simpatia per il nascente gruppo degli incursori della marina, e la sua influenza nel regime fascista gli consentì di propugnarne a più riprese il potenziamento.
		Nel marzo del 1941 la 1ª Flottiglia MAS fu ribattezzata in Xª Flottiglia MAS, con il compito di sperimentare in segreto le nuove armi della marina; la flottiglia era dunque un'unità speciale, ad attività riservata.
		Fu confermato l'utilizzo dei mezzi presenti nella 1ª Flottiglia, e fu riconosciuta formalmente la specialità degli uomini d'assalto o uomini gamma, sommozzatori in grado di nuotare fino a sotto le navi nemiche per collocarvi dell'esplosivo.

		The Decima Flottiglia MAS was reformed, and had various names as the years passed.

		The Italian navy had a long and successful history with the use of light auxiliary craft in operations against their enemies, from the sinking of the Viribus Unitis in World War I to the manned torpedo attacks in Alexandria harbor during World War II, crippling the British battleships Valiant and Queen Elizabeth.
		During the first year of the war in the Mediterranean, Decima Flottiglia Mas had conducted numerous successful operations, including an attack on Gibraltar, the sinking of the HMS York in Suda harbor during the battle for Crete, and the operation against Alexandria.
		While the defenders assumed these were simply minelaying missions, the Decima Flottiglia Mas had in fact been conducting operations to test Malta's defenses and gain familiarity with the topography of the island, and these blind firings may well have been in response to these actions.

		Otto Skorzeny (most famed for his rescue of Benito Mussolini) conducted many special operations for Adolf Hitler, but no Commando organization was developed from this, and Skorzeny essentially remained a Waffen-SS SturmbannfÃ¼hrer (Major).
		Italy\'s Commandos of World War I, the Arditi, were not reformed in World War II, and their most renowned Commandos became the Decima Flottiglia MAS who, from mid-1940, were responsible for the sinking and damage of a considerable tonnage of Allied ships in the Mediterranean.
		After the surrender of Italy in 1943, those fighting with Germany retained the original name, and those fighting with the Allies dubbed themselves the Mariassalto.
