Italian term

colonello f.f. SG

Italian to English Law/Patents Law (general) certificate of discharge
The officer signing this "Foglio di Congedo Illimitato" is identified as IL COMANDANTE and then as Col. f.f. SG Mario Bosco (actual name is different). Can anyone enlighten me as to the significance of the abbreviations f.f. SG? MTIA

Graduate, Staff College Thanks Adrianna and gfe, calling upon family members with military service, I have used the term "Graduate, Staff College"
gfe Jan 28, 2008:
For t.t. SG, the only usage I know is "titolo Scuola di Guerra": more or less a PhD of military arts. Also indicated as TSG.
Arianna A (X) Jan 28, 2008:
This changes things.
t.SG = titolo Scuola di Guerra - therefore t.t.SG = titoli Scuola di Guerra

See link added below in my suggestions box.
Alexandra Scott (asker) Jan 28, 2008:
Correction, abbreviation is Col. t.t. SG I noted some other references online that made me realize that I had mistaken the t.t. for f.f. but this still does not solve the riddle.
gfe Jan 26, 2008:
In public organizations, f.f. may stand for "facente funzione" (acting as, acting for), and SG for "Servizi Generali" (implying "chief of"). But I would not join them together, unless the document explicitly mentions Servizi Generali elsewhere.

Hi. Sorry, I think I might have given you the wrong explenation before.

I've found this glossary that could be useful: http://www.camero.it/it/Acronimi.asp

I can't find f.f on its own. As you can see from this glossary FF.AA. stands for Forze armate and FF.O. for Forze dell’Ordine.
Could it be one of these two?

I have also found this other website: http://www.difesa.it/Segretario-SGD-DNA/SGD-DNA/Vice SG DNA/

In this SG seems to stand for SEGRETARIO GENERALE.

Hope this can help.

OK!

I've found this other link: http://www.esercito.difesa.it/root/vario/sigle.asp

As you can see "t.SG" stands for "titolo Scuola di Guerra". So, in your case having 2 "t" means the plural: "t.t.SG" = "titoli Scuola di Guerra".

Maybe the riddle is solved ;)?
