Gaetano Arturo Crocco

Gaetano Arturo Crocco was an aero inventor in Italy. He worked with Ottavio Ricaldoni. As lieutenants in the Italian military they conducted experiments with Forlanini-type hydroplanes at Bracciano.

En.wp says: Crocco "was an Italian scientist and aeronautics pioneer, the founder of the Italian Rocket Society, and went on to become Italy's leading space scientist."

Some French patent data gives "Arturo Gaetano Crocco" and "A. G. Crocco".

British patent data has both Crocco and Ottavio Ricaldoni, filing in collaboration, both identified as Captains of the Aeronautical Brigade of Rome.

We have this designated as the Aeronautical Brigade of the Army Engineers in Rome.
