The 151st Infantry Division Perugia was an infantry division of the Italian Army during World War II. The ''Perugia'' Division was formed in August 1941 as a garrison division. It was sent on operations to Yugoslavia in December 1941. It was part of the Italian forces committed to the Battle of the Sutjeska. It was then transferred to Albania in August 1943. Following the Italian surrender in September 1943, the Germans of the 99 regiment, I Mountain Division, captured the whole division at "Porto Palermo". The commander of the "Perugia", gen. Ernesto Chiminello, was shot on October 4, 1943, at 16:45; the next day the other 120 officers were shot on the beach of "baia Limione" (a small bay just north of Sarande) and their bodies were thrown in the sea. The last 32 officers, after fierce resistance, were captured near Kuc and shot here in the morning of October 7, 1943.〔 ==Order of battle== *129. Perugia Infantry Regiment *130.
