Austrian National Day for Gabriele D’Annunzio’s “Flight over Vienna” on 9 August 1918

Das Problem

As an Austrian, I would like us all to remember a special moment in our history. A moment that showed us the possibility of a different, better life. The flight over Vienna on August 9, 1918 (Note: the average body weight of an Austrian soldier at that time was 50.3 kg. (The Pike / Lucy Hughes-Hallett), a propaganda flight by several Italian reconnaissance aircraft under the command of the writer Gabriele D'Annunzio, contributed significantly to the end of the First World War when several thousand leaflets were dropped over Vienna. This flight shook the Austrian soul to its very core and reminds us that a different, better life is possible for almost every person on earth.

It is high time that we remember this striking moment in our history and recognize the impact it had on our country. Let us come together and honor the historical value of this propaganda flight. Sign this petition and help keep the memory of this important moment in Austrian history alive.
