Manrico Ducceschi was one of Italy's most prominent partisan commanders during the War of Liberation, commanding the XI Patriot Zone Autonomous Battalion, which controlled 40 kilometers of the Gothic Line. The unit, soon incorporated into the US Fifth Army, was equipped with US uniforms and weapons. It was among the first to liberate Northern Italy, reaching Milan and the Swiss border, and was the only unit to be disbanded with honors. At the end of the war, however, a mystery shrouded the life of this great commander, whose death remains a mystery to this day.
