The 9th Bersaglieri Regiment (Italian: 9° Reggimento Bersaglieri) is an inactive unit of the Italian Army last based in Bellinzago Novarese in Lombardy. The regiment is part of the Italian Army's infantry corps' Bersaglieri speciality and was last operationally assigned to the Armored Brigade "Centauro". The regiment was formed in 1871 by the Royal Italian Army with preexisting battalions. During World War I the regiment served on the Italian front. After the disastrous Battle of Caporetto the regiment was disbanded on 28 November 1917 due to the heavy losses it had suffered.[1]

The regiment was reformed on 20 February 1919. During World War II the regiment fought in the Western Desert campaign in North Africa, where it was destroyed during the Second Battle of El Alamein. In 1976 the regiment's flag and traditions were assigned to the 28th Bersaglieri Battalion "Oslavia", which had become an autonomous unit on 20 October 1975. The regiment's anniversary falls, as for all Bersaglieri units, on 18 June 1836, the day the Bersaglieri speciality was founded.[1]
