    The emblem of the Italian Air Force, surmounted by towers, the symbol of military pilots, includes the distinctive four squadrons that, in the 1st World War, brought to light for skill, courage and heroism.
    The Clover symbol is a copy of the 10th Caproni bomber squadron
    Taken from http://www.aeronautica.difesa.it/storiaTradizione/stemmaAraldica/Pagine/LoStemma.aspx and put through Google translate.

    How disappointing - it looks just like the badge on the back of my old Alfa 33. I thought for a wild moment the entire Italian Airforce was flying somewhat more exotic Alfa Romeos . . .
